Strato Log Download is a small Perl script intended to download logfiles from Web accounts from Strato hosted sites.
The problem is that the normal download interface is interactive, and that only about six weeks are kept on the server. So without scripting, youre likely to lose valuable log information (at least I was unable and unwilling to remember to download the logfiles once every six weeks).
This script logs in via the SSL-encrypted web-interface and downloads the files without needing a web-browser (proxies are configurable via the https_proxy environment variable).
Note: For SSL support, you might need additional Perl modules since some distros dont include crypto stuff: either use IO::Socket::SSL or Net::SSL (in Crypt::SSLeay).
If an SSL module is missing, https access will not work.
Usage is very easy:
$ get-logfiles -p mypassword www.mysite.de > logfile.gz
Enhancements:
- Feature: a new logfile download protocol was necessary, because the web interface changed (thanks to J. Puchalla for telling me -- it would probably have gone unnoticed otherwise).

Batch Download is a plugin for Firefox that makes downloading multiple images easy.

Like FlashGets batch download,but special designed for some image site!

You will find it very useful when you download some url like

http://www.google.com/1.jpg
http://www.google.com/2.jpg
http://www.google.com/3.jpg...

or some other urls like:

http://www.google.com/0102.jpg
http://www.google.com/0203.jpg
http://www.google.com/0304.jpg...

And also you can download all images in current page at once.

I like using Amarok for managing my podcasts but I wasnt able to play my video podcasts.

Amarok Video Player adds a PlayVideo/Play menu item to the context menu which runs KMPlayer.

Edit the script to change KMplayer to another video player.

Download Sort is a Firefox extension that automatically saves downloaded files to different directories when using "Save Link As..." or "Save Image as..."

Many users prefer Gnome Window Manager but cant go without Amarok. Gnome Play Video in Totem allows Gnome Users to view video or audio externally in Totem.

This is very useful for Video Podcasts.

DownloadHelper is a Firefox extension used for web content extraction. Its purpose is to capture video and image files from many sites.

Just surf the Web as you are used to, when DownloadHelper detects it can do something for you, the icon gets animated and a menu allows you to download files by simply clicking an item

For instance, if you go to a YouTube page, youll be able to download the video directly on your file system. It also works with MySpace, Google videos, DailyMotion, Porkolt, iFilm and others.

When you are on a page containing links to images or movies, you can download some or all of them at once. Moving the mouse over the items in the menu will highlights the links directly in the page to make sure they are the ones you want to pick up.

DownloadHelper also allows you to download files one by one, so that you keep bandwidth to surf for other stuff to download.

If you are on a page containing video, but you dont get a download offer from DownloadHelper, right-click on the icon and choose "Check URL", requests will be done to http://videodownloader.net and http://keepvid.com. Allow a few seconds and new entries may appear in the menu.
