Too complicated. I really do not have time to look for options that should by much simpler.

Hi All,

Orbit is functioning great for me too except ‘Resuming’ broken downloads. I don’t know why it just keeps on saying ‘wait for retry (5s)” and never resumes. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Orbit is the fastest download manager i’ve tried. i can download from rapidshare, youtube, pause/resume downlads even after restart of PC, etc, etc. only the Grab++ is not pulling any info. hope in next release will fix that. very happy with Orbit !!) Orbit + FlashGOT rocks!
running on vista + KIS 8.

@ I: re Imeem downloads
Yes Orbit Downloader will download from Imeem if you’re using IE with Orbit’s Grab Pro module.
These programs will also download from Imeem:

Why the f**k does orbit leave a flashing blue grid stripe down the middle of the file?

Orbit is an excellent downloader. Generally all video sites use .flv video. so use FLV player or VLC player.

My IE7 also loses access to the internet with Orbit installed. Firefox works fine and email still syncs up. Very weird….

I love Orbit but lately, it’s been acting wacky. I checked the website, and it seems like I’m not the only one having issues with it. Despite the issues, it’s still one of the best programs of this type that I have used.

@ Shiela

Probably you should try The “KMPlayer”. (http://www.freewaregenius.com/?p=1981). It plays basically everything!

Rubish. My IE7 lost access to the Internet. Have to uninstall.

I had an experience similar to SieRoX. As soon as I installed Orbit, my IE7 lost access to the Internet, though Firefox and my email continued to work fine. As soon as I uninstalled Orbit, my Internet access with IE7 returned.

Don’t have time to fool with it now, so I’m leaving Orbit uninstalled.

This orbit is a great programme! so fast it’s unbeleiveably. pity they don’t have a file converter on board too, then it would be a serious darling of a programme. anyone know of a flv converter equal to the quality of orbit? had a few problems with some others, they can’t find the files that orbit has downloaded. With manual prompting they say that they cant read the file or pick it up, anyone have this problem too?
