Is there some application to download files from popular file hosting websites?

I just added the JDownloader PPA and installed the app but when I launch the app I get a JUpdate box telling me to download which it never does so I'm looking for a good lightweight alternative to JDownloader. Any help

For an alternative available in the repositories, try Tucan Manager tucan, although I haven't had a very good experience with it.

For a lightweight GUI alternative, I highly recommend FreeRapid (it still uses Java)

For a non-Java GUI, try Pyload (deb files available)

If you are comfortable with the command-line, try plowshare, also available from the ppa:plowsharepackagers/ppa PPA.
