I'm using uget on Ubuntu 13.10, but the problem is that it doesn't download from some links automatically.

For example, I want to download a file from http://d-h.st/ONi :

When I click the download button, the download starts in the browser itself... I cant find any way to force download it in uget.

Is there any download manager which can download this file by simply clicking on the download button ? Just like "Orbit Downloader" or "Internet Download Manager" on Windows ?

Thank you.

My personal preference is JDownloader, which does work perfectly fine on your link/file, as the screenshot shows.

JDownloader is a free, open-source download management tool with a huge community of developers that makes downloading as easy and fast as it should be. Users can start, stop or pause downloads, set bandwith limitations, auto-extract archives and much more. It's an easy-to-extend framework that can save hours of your valuable time every day!

To install, use either Ubuntu Software-Center,

or follow this link on their homepage

JDownloader requires Java Runtime Enviroment (jre/jdk) 1.5 or higher. If possible, you should use the latest Java version.

How to automatically download added links:

You have to mark and copy control+c the url of the file you intend to download though, which will then copy it into JD.

From there it autostarts the download, if you checked the option start downloads after adding in Addons -> AddonManager -> Linkgrabber.
