When KGet is started for the first time, you can choose to have it integrated with Kon-
queror. If you integrate KGet with Konqueror, KGet is added to the system tray as an

15.1 Adding Transfers to the List
To add a transfer, click File → Paste. Specify a URL then click OK. Finally, select
where to save the downloaded file. The entry for the transfer is added to the main window
of KGet and the download starts. Another way to add a transfer is to simply drag a file
(for example, from an FTP server) from Konqueror and drop it in the main KGet window.
