Also available at author's site is Speed Download Lite. Speed Download Lite is simply a stripped down version of Speed Download 5 offering just the download manager - without any of the extra features (i.e. FTP, File Sharing, WEBDAV, etc) found in Speed Download 5. With regards to the interface and browser integration, both versions of SD offer the same top of the line performance and reliabilty that you'd expect from a download manager. The Lite version was created in response to a big demand from users who wanted just the download manager part of Speed Download. The Lite version sells for $20, whereas the regular version for $25.
