DownThemAll: News

We released DownThemAll! Version 1.1.9, which is a maintenance and bugfix release.

We fixes some rare situation where the preallocator did not kick in (resuming a not fully allocated file), which caused even worse Firefox hangs than without preallocator.
We also fixed some issues with using DownThemAll! in combination with a dark theme (some dark themes might still not work in some parts; we either fix issues ourselves or notify the theme authors as issues become known).
Then there were a few reports that Firefox might not correctly start up after installation, which seems to be caused by the initial notice window we shown after fresh installations or major upgrades. We disabled this for now, to see how that goes.
Version 2.0 will not have any such window anymore; instead we’re in the process to create a first run page detailing some basic usage.
Windows 7 users observing high memory usage should also have a look at the release notes; We detail the situation there and link the hotfix Microsoft issued.

You can get it on addons.mozilla.org. You may also want to check out our release notes.
