Every now and then I find the need to use a download manager. However they normally take over your system attempting to handle every download. Most of the free ones also tend to be packed full of ad-ware.

Today I ran into uGet, which is absolutely perfect.  On top of being both open source and portable, it does exactly what its intended to do – download – without any added frills or annoyances.
