Following on from last weeks show, this week finishes off the in-depth look at Speed Download 4 by examining some of its many other features. Yes, despite what the name says, it's so much more than just a download manager!

As well as the performance boosting download engine and the super resilient auto-resume features, Speed Download also has:

Full personal and public iDisk integration
A fully featured FTP client built right in
Support for integrating with WebDav servers

plus

A really smart built in capability to share files with other Speed Download users over a secure, resilient connection.

What's even better is that all these different types of connections are managed using the same application with a common interface and that's Speed Download. You can even automate the connection to your commonly used servers and services with a single click so all your common connections are auto mounted once Speed Download launches.

This weeks show takes you through these additional features and shows you how easy it is to configure and manage multiple connections.

Also this week is a special ScreenCastsOnline offer which is BOGOF!

That's buy one, get one free!

Would you like fast and reliable downloads together with a utility that provides a central application to manage all your downloads plus uploads? How about a download manager with a fully functional built in FTP client? Why not throw in seamless iDisk integration and control your uploads and downloads to .Mac from the same application? Even better, why not create a secure and reliable method of sharing files with friends and colleagues with full control over who has access to what? Add in the ability to use the application in most of the popular OSX browsers and you'd have a pretty killer application!

Well all this and more is available using "The Ultimate Download Manager for OSX!" and that's Speed Download 4 from Yazsoft.

It really is a fantastic utility that fulfils all these roles. In fact, There's so much to show you, that I've had to spread it over two shows!

So this weeks show is all about the download capabilities of Speed Download 4 and next week I'll look at the iDisk, FTP and File sharing aspects of the application.
