Download Dolphin

When viewing a web page, how many times have you had a page of thumbnail images and wanted to download the underlying images in one go rather than each image individually? The same could be asked of movies, music, or even documents. Downloading can be tedious without Download Dolphin.

How does Download Dolphin help? Download Dolphin is free software that extends features of Internet Explorer. For example, it makes it easier to download and manage file downloading from web pages.

Brief History of Download Dolphin

In 2001, a software engineer, D. Philip Carney, began Download Dolphin. Much like the way the internet itself was hidden from the public for decades, Download Dolphin was only in the hands of few people until recently. It became free when the software interface designer and marketing consultant, John F. Keane, added his skills to the Download Dolphin Team.

Previously, Download Dolphin was not free and unpublicised; it was a private tool that only a handful of people were allowed to use. However, its aim was and still is to improve the experience of users when browsing. In short, repetitive downloading is mind-numbing and we wanted a way to reduce the alienation.

As toolbar and similar technologies improved, we realised that these technologies could be used to ease browsing and downloading. To the knowledge of those involved in this project, no free software does what Download Dolphin does.
