Introduction

Net Vampire is a universal download manager you can use to find, schedule and download files from FTP and Web servers. Just drag the link from your browser to a small floating window, and the program will get the file for you.

Net Vampire will find alternate locations of the file on the Internet, test the sites for accessibility and speed, establish a dial-up connection when scheduled, and start downloading. You don't have to worry about busy servers and connection failures - the program will knock the server until the connection is established and resume the download where it left off.

On download completion, Net Vampire will notify you with a text message or with a sound, open the received file or launch your virus checker, disconnect the modem or even shut down your system - at your discretion.

Net Vampire is easy to use. Though the program has numerous options, you don't need to use or understand most of them for simple downloads. Read the Quick Start section for details.
