Computer freezes after "flashgot all"

Post by FunkyMonkey »

Hi, I don't know if this has been reported.posted before, I can't seem to find it. If so please point me to the topic.

Firefox: 3.5.9
Flashgot: 1.2.1.21
Flashget: 1.65

What should happen when using flashgot all is this:
(I took this screenshot while using flashget in IE)

But what happens (when usign flashgot all in FF) is that for each link/object on the page a single download window is opened:

When this happens a few windows are opened, my comp becomes very slow and eventually freezes completely. Even ctrl-alt-del doesn't work in that case so I have to do a hard reset :(

Is there a way to fix this ? I love flashgot but I now have to revert to using IE in this case.

Thanks in advance :)

Guessing you have what, about 2,000 links there?
for each link/object on the page a single download window is opened
And this is what kind of window? A FF download window or a FlashGet download window?
(FlashGet I assume.)

With FlashGet 1.73 I get the same download window that you show with IE (in SeaMonkey).

Try reinstalling FlashGet & see if that makes any difference ?
