- When the program detects you are not connected to the internet an alert is displayed with the option to run network diagnostics (like Safari does) to solve the problem and get you reconnected.

New in DropDownloadURL 1.0.3 (Apr 12, 2010)
- A button named "Process Browser URL" for downloading the current browser URL resources has been placed in the status window. Clicking this button queues up and downloads all URLs referenced by the current browser window (only supported browsers available, such as Safari, Omniweb, Camino.)
New in DropDownloadURL 1.0.2 (Feb 5, 2009)
- In the previous update the option to preserve file comments during aggregation was added.
- This was because it was discovered comments were lost when the files were moved.
- It turns out this bug only exists in the Tiger version of Mac OS X, and not Leopard.
- Therefore now the program will not copy file comments if this option is selected in Leopard since it would be redundant and waste time.
- (Note the the downloaded file will have their comments set to the location URL if that option is selected.)
New in DropDownloadURL 1.0.1 (Jan 24, 2009)
- The destination directory is no longer stored as a pathname, but as an alias. This way if you move or rename it the program can still find it.
- A "default directory" has been implemented in case no directory is explicitly chosen, or a previous selection has been trashed.
- Added the option to preserve file comments when aggregating the downloaded files. Since copying comments is more time consuming this option is off by default.
- An "Options" button has been added to the main window for opening the preferences window more quickly.
- Added an alert when the "Aggregate Files" button is clicked since this operation is undoable by the program.
- Added a "tool tip" to the "Open Output Folder" button that shows where the destination directory is.
- The file navigation dialog for choosing a destination directory has been made localizable.
