Anti-Malware Toolkit

Due to recent events the next scheduled releases have been delayed. This is due to server changes and other items occurring. Development has resumed and is underway. An update will be coming within the coming week pending no critical bugs are found.

I tried this out for the very first time and this is one awesome utility. It really helped SPEED my PC up a bit. I am really glad its part of the AMT. :gold:

Version 1.04.138 has been released. Changes: [Added] Skip button now present to skip downloads.

1.) Disable the "Download" button until at least one application is selected. After all you can not "Download" anything if you did not choose any applications. Duh! 2.) Please show download speed (perhaps text to download percentage). 3.) When a download fails you get "Unable to connect to the remote server" and then "Download aborted". Not a very helpful error.

Selecting avast consistently causes the download to fail with "Unable to connect to the remote server". If this is part of a large selection, it may not be obvious which download triggered this. Perhaps the error message could include the package that failed. (I did get spybot sd to fail once (after point 3 below)) 2. Clicking ok on the above then stops the other downloads from running 3. Typical user behaviour is to try again, which means any downloads previous downloaded successfully are redownloaded again - wasting…

That's right, a new name for LunarDownloader is coming. Listening to the concerns of users who have commented that the "Downloader" part of the name sounds like a virus. I agree with their concerns and will be addressing them with a new application name. A new release will be coming soon.
