Captcha) related to each link, so it automatically
download all the files, once they are downloaded the application will
decompress the files (including the option to decompress password secured files, if we know the password). We can add new
links to be downloaded by simply copying the link to the clipboard,
JDownloader will automatically recognize it, and will add it to the
download queue, allowing us to manage file groups or folders. Furthermore, we can add additional
direct download hosts manually.
