It seems that you're using an outdated browser. Some things may not work as they should (or don't work at all).
We suggest you upgrade newer and better browser like: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera

Finally you can test the beta version of this simple and slick application which lets you easily download your purchased games.
Today we've added the beta version of GOG.com Downloader which lets you easily download games you've bought, pause and resume transfer, add games to download queue and rearrange the queue by simple drag & drop. To check the downloader in action go to “My account” page, click on "Add to downloader" link and follow the instructions to install it. The GOG.com Downloader is totally optional and downloading games via browser remains the default download method.
News posted at the Steam Group!
Will try it on my laptop :)
Minimize to system tray would be nice.
Also I can't seem to find shortcuts for the program in the start menu after installing it on Vista x64.
edit: It seems like it isn't in the GOG.com folder but directly in the Program folder as it's own entry.
Everything else is fine.

Install was quick & easy.
Downloader: Pretty slick, and highly appreciated!
Congrats for the release ;-)
Where do we have to report bugs? To the support team?

Cool, have to try it out when EWJ and Second Sight hit.
Very spiffy.
Just to clarify - does this mean the GOG server now supports resuming? Or is resume only available with with the downloader?

Download resuming is only available via the GOG downloader. Other download managers won't be able to authorize you within gog.com.
I am having a problem with installing it
When you click add to queue... then on "what is downloader" it comes up with the 2 simple steps... But I can't click on anything. The close 'x' doesn't work and I can't click on AIR or GOG Downloader..
I can't even click any of the tabs at the top of the screen... all I can do is hit the back button on my browser... IE7 by the way

We'll look into it, in the meantime you can:
1. Install Adobe AIR here: get.adobe.com/air
2. Get GOG Downloader here: www.gog.com/air/gogDownloader.air

Thanks...
It would be nice if we could add the extras to the queue as it would simplify the downloading process.
Or an option to download all the files in one downloader package.
