[KGet] Many problems

I think current version of KGet is quite buggy. Often I can't pause or delete download, often It crushes when I'm doing this and because downloads automatically started when starting kget, I sometimes need to manyually delete its files to delete problematic downloads.
Anybody else have such problems?

In fact I stopped using KGet (~ kde 3.1.4) because of similar problems. It often used 100% CPU with just a few downloads and I don't have a very "fast" computer.

Anyway, what I did was submit a bug report. Try to do one too :wink:...

I usually use only konqueror. It suports "resume" although I didn't know that for a while. I just save the URL and start donwloading it againg later.

For bigger downloads I use wget from the command line.
