As Firefox does not support very good download management, its a pain to download even small files with TOR. Is there any add-on or app that can be used without been concerned about security (Linux)? I just want a working resume function, nothing else.I can't say 100% it would never compromise Tor anonymity, but I've used DownThemAll addon for Firefox for a long time & it's extremely popular. Maybe others can comment if there's a chance it could violate privacy using Tor / TBB.
