It is also possible to use right-click over links option to send links to Download Accelerator Plus (DAP) without installing the download observer.

Doesn't work anymore. Downloaded DAP and everything it asks from another websites (main page is dead) and it simply can't download anything. Well, it "downloads" something, but it's an 1kb version of the file you want, as it starts and finishes at the same time.
