Flash Saver

Flash Saver is a download manager that works exclusively with Flash files, letting you save the animations you find online with minimum effort.

With the design of a typical download manager, Flash Saver requires users to manually create every new task, which isn’t quite good news for those who hoped to save Flash files on the go.

With a floating window also available to let you access the program at any given moment, Flash Saver can also look for Flash files in the currently opened Internet Explorer window and thus speed up the whole process.

The main window is being used to show information about the download, including filename, destination category, downloaded percentage, size, total and source URL, with a preview panel letting you view the animation with ease.

What’s more, it has several predefined categories, while it also allows you to create new ones and thus easily organize your downloads.

Last but not least, Flash Saver can search the cache for Flash files and open them automatically or save all items in one of the aforementioned categories.

Flash Saver doesn’t affect system performance, but it is terribly slow on Windows 7 workstations. It works flawlessly on Windows XP however, with a minimum footprint on hardware resources.

Overall, Flash Saver is a decent application and nothing more. It lacks too many important features to even dream about becoming a top product, while the implemented utilities are likely to disappoint most of the users.
