The one feature I miss since I upgraded to Alt.Binz from GrabIt is the 'Pause for N minutes/hours' drop down on the pause button so when you click it you get a menu saying:
Pause for 5 minutes
Pause for 15 minutes
Pause for 30 minutes
Pause for 1 hour
Pause for 2 hours
etc.
You select how long you want to pause for and it automatically unpauses after that time.
It's a very useful feature for those of us on limited bandwidth connections who sometimes want to pause briefly to do some browsing without having to remember to manually un-pause again later.
Anyway, keep up the good work with Alt.Binz, it's an excellent piece of software.

Hi & +1
Not a change to alt.binz but a possible solution. When I want to pause downloads, I suspend the active process or programme and that has the effect of pausing the download. I use process tool from beyondlogic (http://www.beyondlogic.org/solutions/processutil/processutil.htm) and have a CMD file containing the following to pause altbinz & folding....
"P:\Admin Scripts\Process tool\process.exe" -s altbinz.exe
"P:\Admin Scripts\Process tool\process.exe" -s FahCore_11.exe
"P:\Admin Scripts\Process tool\process.exe" -s FahCore_14.exe
To resume, command line changes to...
"P:\Admin Scripts\Process tool\process.exe" -r altbinz.exe
"P:\Admin Scripts\Process tool\process.exe" -r FahCore_11.exe
"P:\Admin Scripts\Process tool\process.exe" -r FahCore_14.exe
Alternatively, you could use PsSuspend from Sysinternals / Microsoft
Hope this helps

+1 for this, I'm forever forgetting to unpause my downloads after I'm done gaming online or whatever

+1 again on this, I always forget to unpause whilst using BW for something else!

Gaming requires full BW and I always forget to un-pause alt.binz after I'm done.
