I've now replaced the GetRight link with a link to Fresh Download. Not
sure whether that is an improvement - while Fresh Download is not
adware like GetRight, it does nag about "free registration" requiring
you to give an email address, and of course it is closed-source.

There just doesn't exist any Free HTTP download manager in the Windows
world.

Cheers,
