    I myself prefer Orbit Downloader.

    If you prefer a extension over separate program, you may consider DownThemAll.

    I got steered to the Free Download Manager, and have been quite happy with it. It includes a Firefox plug-in which takes over from the one built into FF, and can be set to a number of options such as number of sections/connections or even number of simultaneous files.

    One nice feature is that it'll check for any warnings (from other users) about the file you're about to download.

    I use Free Download Manager here too.
    I like it better than Star Downloader.
