orbit downloader 1.0-the fastest free download manager.

<< < (6/9) > >>

Anyway, Orbit Downloader looks a lot like FDM with less options. So if anyone needs a free download manager I'd recommend to use http://www.freedownloadmanager.org instead of this little clone.

I don't think Orbit is a clone of FDM or FDM is a clone of FalshGet....... Every download manager is good. The key is which fit you. It has lots of unique features which FDM does not have. And Orbit can grab flash games from webpages is useful for me :Thmbsup:.

Hi Orbitdev,

Thank you for posting. I'm sorry for the false alarm.

Hi all:

I'm the developer of Orbit downloader, Our official support email address is
< orbitdownloader  at  gmail.com >. Welcome for your suggestion.

1. orbitnet.exe is an optional program which uses the DHT p2p network to locate additional
  copies of the program you are downloading, much like torrent does,so that it can download
  pieces of the file from different servers and combine them, in order to speed up download.
  You can't disable it in current version, But in next version,you can disable it during
  installation & options menu.

2. We never install any toolbar/adware/spyware to system, We are contacting with the anti-virus vendor
to solve the mis-alarm problem.

3. Orbit Downloader have no relationship with adware "Orbit Explorer", Orbit name come from NASA's website,
 we think it is cool, and we do some google search to find it contain any adware/spyware before, but unfortunately, we doesn't find it.

4. Orbit Downloader was building from scratch, It have no relationship with FDM.

Thank for every advice. We want to do better, and don't be evil :(

Sincerely
Orbit Team

Hi Orbitdev, first I'd like to thank you for taking the time to help us clear this up. I'm sure many members here will find it useful. As you know I did post with some evidence I gathered against your product, if it turned out to a false alarm, I will apologize on the forum.

With all due respect and no offense, I have to admit that I do question your sincerity in the case:

Under CNET's software submission rules, you are NOT allowed to post your reviews if you are the developer himself.. LET ALONE posting any "user review", especially with another user account.

mouser:
One thing i would like clarification on is,
even when you exit the program the orbitnet.exe stays running in the background.

what exactly is it doing - what is its purpose?
