I have a 100 or so 500Mb files I wish to download from a website. FTP is not available so I am looking for a download manager, ideally one that integrates with Firefox but not essential. I've been using DownThemAll with FF but it cannot (unless I am missing it) schedule downloads for specific times

It needs to
* be free
* be able to schedule downloads to commence at specific times (my broadband is uncapped between midnight and 8 am)
* not have any nags, adware, etc
* be able to handle BASIC authentication

Any suggestions?

TIA

Rob

Free Download Manager (http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/) ? Its a standalone software app, but I think it ticks all your requirements*

* There's a couple more apps I'm aware of, but I'm trying to stop getting distracted enough to pack for Skeggy(!)
