    Actually tested 8 of these a short time ago and the fastest freebie by far was "Orbit" - http://download.cnet.com/Orbit-Downloader/3000-2071_4-10600926.html

    Install the flashgot extension which is also good but will allow you to easily switch between testing download managers.

    If you use Firefox, the DownThemAll! extension is a pretty good download manager.

    The fastest I've tried was GetBot, especially if you rt click on the file in queue and select 'Get' multiple times. But my preference is Flashget classic version.

    FDM and Orbit, both are good free offerings.

    I like Flashget 1.72 Build 128.

    Careful using other versions.
