Who hates Go!Zilla ?

Hey!

I'm making a download program (like Go!Zilla, NetZip, GetRight, etc)...except that mine runs on a remote server over a LAN...interested?

The idea is that when you click on a link in Internet Explorer/Netscape the client version of the program intercepts the download, ships it off to the server machine which does the download for you (therefore not lowering you machine's bandwidth) and when the download it complete the browser copies it back to your machine Cool huh?

What I need to know is: How do you grab a download from IE/Netscape?

if you're gonna make a program like Go!Zilla then I suggest that you make it easy-to-use, and that you let the user pick were to download the file before it starts downloading

Like the signature...I nicked the idea off someone...if it was u then thanks...else COPYCAT!!!

Yeah...was planning to do that bit u suggested

[dimava]

yea, you got the signature thing from me

I think there is a entry in the registry that lets you enter the command line of the program that captures downloads. Don't know where it is in the registry though!

Hey,

Do anyone know about any program that downloads a program
from say download.com and simultaneously uploads to a website using ftp with minimum usage of my bandwidth ??

matthewralston, on the Getright homepage, somewhere there is a source code coded in C++ for how to make something like their own software. If you find this on their homepage and do not use C++, I suggest you get a C++ to VB converter. As for the question...Do you hate Go!Zilla? I hate Go!Zilla! That program is complicated! But I do use Getright. It's easy to understand and can get the job done.

I was also wondering...how do you expect to make this? Do you already have the source code? Or do you just plan to look around for source code and than make it?

Cheers, Matt...nice name

What do you mean how do I expect to make it?
I'm using the Internet Transfere control to do the downloads on the server, and the Winsock control to have the client programs talk to the download server... no, I don't have the source code yet because I'm still making it!!

Cheers...wossname too! shall have to install gozilla or getright an do a registry search

you're thinking of something like FXP, only thing is you need two FTP sites, lets say you know what you want off one of Download.com FTP mirrors, then you also have FTP access to the website, using FXP , you can make the Download.com FTP send the file to the webserver FTP, with you in the middle cordinating the traffic and commiting the login, best part is, the files being transfered never go through you, they go from one FTP to the other (this was very popular during pirated software high peaks, where couriors would just transfer from one FTP to another without having to download it themsevles)

Where can I get FXP software ??
