Great extension, that containers could be a pain in the ***, continue with the great work and I'll wait all the time needed for the Quantum release of the main Add-on

Just download the mIRC log file from your computer, change the file extension to .html and open it in FireFox. When it opens, click the Tools menu and select DownThemAll (after you've installed the AntiContainer app) and ALL the photos will be extracted from the log file. What a time-saving improvement over double-clicking on thousands of individual .html files!

The people who wrote this app are geniuses!

If the goal is to download from the few sites with included plugins in DTA-anticontainer, it may work. Except sites change their coding constantly. Plugins will need updating - as several reviews mention & support site requests.

If a site doesn't have an included plugin & DTA (by itself) or with DTA-AC still does what you need - great. If not, most users probably won't know how to write plugins that actually work. One reason - scripts & page source for different sites vary a lot.

There is a "tutorial" on writing plugins on the support page - wiki, but examples don't show what data from a site's source was used, or why - to decide what was needed for the plugin. The example plugins just sort of appear - there is some explanation. Not enough for most "technically inclined" users to write their own.

The addon needs detailed examples & step by step instructions - how to look at sites' source code (on sites, R click a page > View Page Source) and explain - based on the page's code - how to decide what's needed in a plugin.
My guess is, users with some knowledge could spend hours writing & troubleshooting one plugin.

The instructions on replacing updated plugins (that aren't yet in official releases) are insufficient for average users to follow. https://github.com/downthemall/anticontainer - Under "Pro Tips" at the page bottom.

Developing an * almost * automatic "wizard" to create plugins would be a lot of work. For typical or moderately advanced users, without step by step instructions on writing plugins based on sites' actual source code, this addon may have limited use.

Last add-on version should also work with Firefox ESR latest... current does not work with FF ESR 38:(

Also plugins should be updated more often but hey, it's free... cannot complain... good work and thnx much :)

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.4).

Till today I used it to dll the real-sized images from a Google search. But today it stopped recognize and marking images in Google when checked.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.3.1-signed). This user has a previous review of this add-on.

J'avais du réinstaller firefox et j'avais perdu mon module, impossible de me souvenir de son nom. Enfin, je l'ai retrouvé. De tous les modules de téléchargement vidéo, DownThemAll est le meilleur. Et avec cet anticontainer, plus de problème de fichiers inaccessible :o) J'espère qu'il y a d'autres programmes du ou des mêmes auteurs ! Bravo à eux et merci :o)
