Nix to NetAnts

I have used NetAnts download manager in the past but will no longer do so.  It has a really hefty load of adware attached.  After running Spybot and Adaware and removing all of the added junk that came with NetAnts, the program was totally dead.  28 entries were recorded from that single installation of NetAnts.  I decided to try Free Download Manager.  It is a small ad-free program that has so far not revealed any snakes in the installation.  LeechGet will not handle the large 2G files on Linux stuff.
