#Free download manager plugin 1.5.7.6 updateSo my opinion above is probably rather biased - for Firefox users the FDM plugin now works straight out of the box and hopefully will update automatically from now on! What's not to like? #Free download manager plugin 1.5.7.6 codeAs a keen user of the Pale Moon browser (An optimised version of latest Firefox/Mozilla code for current Windows OS on modern CPU's) it requires some extra effort to fully integrate FDM so as not to have to use one of the integrator Add-ons! (See Pale Moon Forum topic "Integrating Free Download Manager" if interested: ) Mozilla removed their original article but you can still find copies to read with a simple search. on the "Mozilla Wall of Shame" last year. I also think it's better to avoid unnecessary extra Firefox Extensions where possible - FlashGot was fingered as No 4. #Free download manager plugin 1.5.7.6 fullPersonally I like the "one click" full browser integration achieved by using FDM with it's own Firefox Plugin. In particular FDM's built-in monitoring, which should automatically "pick up" downloads selected in the browser, does not work - requiring you to select FDM through an expanded right click menu options list. flashgot/) or xThunder ( ) is that they cannot achieve the full integration with the Firefox browser that FDM is designed to offer. Hope my answers help? It would really help to have some more detailed information from the FDM development team - Carl Sagan's Ghost: The major drawback of using either of the Integrator type Add-ons FlashGot (. (NOTE: If you are running latest FDM 3.9.1 BETA "build 1268" (released ) the new version 1.5.7.6 plugin's "install.rdf" file has the "maxVersion" number set to Firefox version 20.*.*) See my 2nd question to vaneo above - also 10 days ago. However if you are running one of the more recent FDM 3.9.1 BETA versions (latest BETA download available from link on FDM 3.9.1 BETA forum topic - link near top of 1st post by Alex.) your plugin probably AUTOMATICALLY UPDATES to FDM Plugin version 1.5.7.6 when you update to Firefox 15 if not before - I just booted (different computer from the one running FDM 3.9) after updating it to Firefox 15 and the new Plugin 1.5.7.6 had appeared in Firefox Add-ons Manager/Extensions when I looked a few hours later! (NOTE: FDM 3.9 + old Plugin version 1.5.7.4 does NOT seem to update automatically so you will need to UPDATE MANUALLY.) See my 1st question to vaneo above - 10 days ago. Yes - If it is FDM Plugin 1.5.7.5 it will allow current FDM stable release versions 3.9 or 3.9 lite (both are "build 1249") - to work with all Firefox 15 versions - latest stable release of Firefox is currently version 15.0.1 and my FDM 3.9 + new Plugin version 1.5.7.5 works. Yes - Softpedia's copy should be the same as FDM Plugin 1.5.7.5 that can be downloaded from vaneo's link to the Firefox Add-ons site at top of this thread - which is where my copy came from last week!ĮDIT: The link in vaneo's original announcement above is a Firefox Add-on page in Russian - there is also an English language Firefox Add-on page at. I believe YES is the answer to both your questions - IMHO as ordinary FDM user trying to make sense of the rather limited information as best I can! I, and no doubt many other other more technically interested FDM users, would much appreciate it if you could explain how the new FDM Plugins actually achieve this. but opening up the same new Plugin 1.5.7.5 prior to installation into Firefox shows only "maxVersion" 15.*) In discussion with other FDM users I/we also note that the new Plugin version 1.5.7.5 seems to be able to detect the FDM version installed and then alter the "maxVersion" compatibility number in the "install.rdf" file to suit? (EXAMPLE: FDM 3.9.1 BETA (build 1264 - one down from latest BETA) did not update automatically but when new Plugin 1.5.7.5 was downloaded the "maxVersion" altered to read: 18a1. #Free download manager plugin 1.5.7.6 windows 7I also have the latest FDM 3.9.1 BETA (build 1268) on a Windows 7 machine - this updated completely automatically - but to a new 1.5.7.6 Plugin version? ("install.rdf maxVersion" now reads 20.*.*) ("install.rdf maxVersion" now reads 15.*) I then downloaded the new Plugin 1.5.7.5 from your link and this installed normally. When I ran "Check for Updates" from inside Firefox 15.0 Add-ons Manager/Extensions "No update available" was still reported. I note that my FDM 3.9 "lite" (latest stable version: build 1249) on XP/SP3 machine did not update automatically from the old version 1.5.7.4 Plugin. Vaneo: Thanks very much for the excellent news in your post above and also for the link to the updated FDM Plugin 1.5.7.5 on Firefox's Addons website.
