Drag URLs from your browser’s location field or web page onto the Dock icon.

I went to download this application, its just what I was looking for a few weeks ago when I was trying to migrate a client’s website from the old site to the new version we built.

However, in the article you said this is a free utility, but the readme file from the download says the following:

“This software is part of the Limit Point Software Utilities bundle, and initially runs in fully functional demo mode. When the demo expires you are requested to make a donation in the amount of your choice to obtain a permanent Utilities password. A Utilities password will enable you to run DropDownloadURL and all other utility software indefinitely. All upgrades are always free, and new products are always included.”

Just a heads up.
