Hi guys
I read a website today that contained links to some PDFs. I wanted to download them, so I opened "List all links", entered "pdf" in the filter box, pressed Ctrl+A to select them and then started the download. But KGet then loaded all available links. Then I tried again, but the result was similar, see the following example:

Say, the page contains those links (in alphabetical order)
document.pdf
image.jpg
readme.pdf
summary.txt

If I now filter the list for "pdf" (showing me document.pdf and readme.pdf), click on the first and shift-click on the last item, then KGet would download image.jpg as well, because alphabetically it lies between the two PDFs and is thus selected by a shift-selection.

Summarising, I recommend to change the behavior of the link list - selections should only be made on visible items.

This is already fixed in KGet trunk (KDE 4).
