Rated 4 out of 5
by Firefox user 15508384, 2 months agoI've been using VDH for years. Premium twice, because I like it so much.
It gets 4 stars now (not 5) for two reasons:
1)The developer has disabled the contact page on his site, and there's no way to reach him. This is a problem ...
2)It's a very weird design decision to make me select download directory and file name (from Download As) *after* the download is complete. It causes the Save As system dialog to interrupt what I'm doing, routinely stealing keystrokes meant for another program and erasing the correct filename, wasting my time. Why can't I pre-select that stuff when I *start* the download, like the extension used to do?
