hey guys
i want to develop a download manager for downloading multiple items from web sites, but to tell the truth... i have no idea where to start... i mean, i can make the gui but how can i make the connection to the web?
now i realize this may be too much to ask, so i`ll be satisfied if someone can point me in the right direction. what do i need to learn to do this?
thanks!

.net framework has easy methods of doing this.
Check out the WebClient class.
For multiple files at the same time you will probably want to start a new download on a seperate thread and report back progress to the form.
yes, i tihnk each download will have a thread of its own.
thanks for the tip!
WinINet is easy, Winsock is flexible, there are tons of 3rd party libraries out there.
You have many options. :)
