I have about 5 downloads going right now with D4X on a machine. If I stop the downloads and move the partly downloaded files to another machine, will the D4X on another machine, pick up from where it left ?

yeah totally, there's nothing black magic about it, it just looks at the file you're downloading to and skips that much from the start.

If the server supports resume download feature.
Which is usually the case

Here's a quick how-to after fiddling around.

1. Under File menu in D4X, select Save List.
(This will save the entries in your window along with the path to server and your downloading preferences)

2. Copy the folder you have set for downloads to the new machine.
(There are hidden files in there starting with a ".")

3. In the new D4X, select Load List from File menu and provide the file you just saved.

4. Once you have the entries in the new machine, fire up your downloads.
