FDM 3.9.6 wy2

[Alex]

The LITE version of 3.9.6 says: "Invalid installation: installed Bittorrent module can't be used with this version of FDM"
What is wrong???

You need to update it.

Last version of FDM has some incorrect logic.

I am trying to a file (Daemon Tools Lite):
http://mirror09.mountspace.com/getfile. ... taller.exe
As you see, FDM gets this URL, which has .php and FDM preparing for it group OTHERS, but it is not correct, because this link s .EXE, which should be placed in the Software group!

The logic is very simple and very old, unchanged for years. It was introduced in the ancient times, when FTP sites and direct links were in common use. FDM determines group basing on an original URL. If file extension is not defined in any groups, "Other" group is used.
Currently such a simple logic doesn't work in most cases, as sites use redirections and you really don't know what is hidden behind good-looking links. For example:
- In your URL *.php file is linked. Path to *.exe file is a parameter for redirection (stands after ?), not a direct link. In short words - you can click link to *.php (*.html, *.asp etc.), but *.exe instead.
- Direct links to file hosting sites in most cases work properly only for logged-in s. Other s for such links may only error message or request in text/plain ot text/html. In short words - you can click link to *.exe but *.html instead.

Knowing that you can change group manually (fe. change group to "Software" when ing some rar files and "Video" or "Audio" when ing some other rar files) or use more sophisticated features:
- You can define your own groups and associate them with specific sites using Site Manager (good for s from many subdomains working as a cloud).
- You can use macros for ("Save to folder") paths.

Note that groups don't work at all for (flash) video s, but macros DO work when defining "Save to folder" manually.

Requests:
1) Replace the words "Free Manager" in the context menu entries (such as " with Free Manager") with "FDM" so as to have shorter / less wider, more sensible context menu entries.
2) Allow an option for cascading context menu to reduce height of the menu and keep it cleaner.

I installed LITE version. I previously used LITE version.
How come Bittorrent module is required for LITE version ?

Never mind.

What about providing OpenSSL libs for HTTPS s from TLS only enabled sites? It was discussed here: viewtopic.php?f=1&t=17016&p=40745&hilit=https+vista#p40755

The FDM version has been temporarily reverted back to 1614 build due to problems with Google Safe Browsing. Sorry for the inconvenience. Hopefully, the issue will be solved soon.

I don't use Google Chrome so I don't have to worry and other should uninstall Google Chrome if it is this much of a problem when FDM loads. I use on IE11, FF42 and it has no problem with 1623 version. I would avoid Chrome like a plague since it has proven itself unreliable as a Safe *cough* *pun* Broswer.
