Hello,

I'm writing a download manager (like GetRight, DownloadAccelerator ....),
and I'd like to "catch" internet explorer downloads (so that I download the
files instead of IE).
How can i do that in C# ? Is it possible to do something that will work wih
any browser ?

Thanks

Through a google search, I've seen that I need to implement the
IDownloadManager COM interface. But I dont know anything about COM... Can I
implement such an object in C# ?

Thanks

Hi Vincent,

Yes, it is just a Plug-in of IE.
You can implement IDownloadManager COM component(It is not hard, because it
only has one method.)
After you registered the component, you should register your class id into
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE的\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\DownloadUI
for IE.

Then your component will take effect.

Btw: it only available for IE5.5 or higher version.

For more information, you can search "Implementing a Custom Download
Manager" in MSDN.

Hope this helps,
Best regards,
Jeffrey Tan
