There are several ways to start your downloads with Internet
Download Manager.
1) IDM monitors clicks in Internet Explorer, MSN Explorer,
AOL, Opera, Mozilla, Netscape, and many other browsers. This method is the
easiest one. If you click on a download link in Internet Explorer or in another
browser IDM will take over and accelerate this download. In this case you don't
need to do anything special, just browse the Internet as you usually do. IDM
takes over a download from Internet Explorer if its type matches the list of
types/extensions. The list of file types/extensions to download with IDM can be
edited in Options->General. If IDM has taken over a download, it shows the
following dialog
If you click on Download Later button, URL (web address) will
be added to the list of downloads, but the download process doesn't start. If
you click on Start Download button, IDM will start downloading the file
immediately. IDM lets you associate your downloads with IDM categories. IDM
suggests the category and the default download directory according to file
type. You may edit categories, delete and add new categories in the main IDM
window. If you want to see the contents of a zip file before downloading, you
may click on Preview button.
IDM will take over any download if you hold down the CTRL key
while clicking its download link in Internet Explorer. (you should check
"Use CTRL key with IE click monitoring" box in "IDM
Options->General").
If you hold down the ALT key while clicking on a download
link in IE, IDM will not take over the download and let Internet Explorer
download the file. (you should check "Use ALT key with IE click
monitoring" box in "IDM Options->General")
If you don't want IDM to take over any downloads from a
browser, turn off the browser integration in IDM options. After turning off or
on the browser integration in "IDM Options->General", don't forget
to restart the browser.
Remember if Internet Download Manager had problems
downloading file, you should press Alt while clicking on a link to let the
browser process the download.
2) IDM monitors clipboard for valid URLs (web addresses).
IDM monitors system clipboard for URLs with special extension
types. When a web address is being copied to the clipboard, IDM shows its
dialog to start Download.
