i suppose the point may be that the target file is downloaded not
directly but with the help of a small 'download manager' file that you
are to download first. i avoid downloading through such managers.
I strongly dislike the so-called "installers" also, but if you really
want or need the program, how do you get it without?
usually it exists somewhere installer-free, or at least analogue of it. one
notable example was adobe flashplayer, whose download manager just refused to
download it (i think, that was because i had turned off task scheduler). first
time, it was a quest to find a direct download link on adobe's site. by today,
they have made things a bit simpler, the links are listed on the help page.
