if no one produces a good gui with the 'shutdown when finished' option you can always use the commandline ;)

 

to see what I'm talking about, open xterm>cd /path/to/download/to>then;

wget -t 10 ftp://mandrake-forum.org/pub/Misc/mutt/Readme && killall xterm.real

when the Readme is done downloading the xterm will be killed. If instead, you wanted to shutdown afterwards you'd do;

wget -t 10 ftp://mandrake-forum.org/pub/Misc/mutt/Readme && shutdown -h now

:D

 

SEE: wget --help

man wget

If you only want to be able to shutdown after download, then I've found d4x to work rather well. If you're looking for something that will make multiple connections to speed up downloads, then give prozilla a try. (proz and prozgui)
