Envoy captures the state of stand-alone downloading managers circa 1995. Features are limited, settings are buried in new windows rather than being given toolbar status, and integration with browsers is poor.

The final insult is that the developer expects $18 for such crapware. Unbelievable.

For full-featured, cutting edge download managers, $25 will get you iGetter or Speed Download. I prefer iGetter for its simplicity and free upgrades, but both are fine choices.

Gnutella? There are myriad Gnutella clients which are vastly more powerful than Envoy. They are also free. Acqlite, Poisoned, Cabos are just a few.
