To integrate VisualWget with Mozilla Firefox do the following...

  1. Install FlashGot Extension.
  2. Select Tools>FlashGot>More Options...
  3. Under General tab>Download Manager, click Add.
  4. When prompted for name, enter "VisualWget".
  5. When prompted to locate the executable file, go to VisualWget folder and select "VisualWget.exe".
  6. Use only "[URL]" as an arguments template and VisualWget will use the default download properties. (VisualWget accept only long options, i.e., --continue not -c.)
  7. Click OK to close FlashGot Options.

Unfortunately FlashGot does not support using quotes within the arguments template so you can not enter an option that require an argument which containing space character e.g. you can not use something like this in the arguments template...

--directory-prefix="C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Desktop"

Instead of "Documents and Settings" use "DOCUME~1", the 8 character DOS names obtained from command "dir *.* /x". (Thanks to wilsonmar)
