View and Manage Downloads from a Statusbar in Firefox
I have been a die-hard fan of Firefox since atleast 5 years now and have come across some fantastic add-ons during this time. Never thought about going back to Internet Explorer, to tell the truth. Here’s a but about a must-have Firefox add-on which has very nicely been described in this article I came across today.
Download Statusbar is a Firefox Extension for users who do not want the Firefox download window to get in way of their browsing.
This Firefox addon is recommended for users who download files very often and using this addon they will be able to view and manage downloads from a tidy statusbar instead of the download window.
The fully customizable interface of this Firefox addon auto-hides when not in use, allowing full control without interruption.
Users can pause/resume a file download with single-click and can open or run a completed file with double-click. Other interesting feature of this addon is the in-line preview of percent done, speed in KBs, KBs downloaded so far and remaining time. A virus scanner can also be configured to auto-scan a file when it completes.

It’s a very useful plugin indeed. I’m using this since a long time.
