DownloadStudio 7.0.5 works with Windows 8, however it does have an issue that WinPcap, a component it relies on, that does not install correctly on Windows 8.

To overcome this please complete these two steps:

1. Download Winpcap from here (don't install yet, just download):

http://www.winpcap.org/install/default.htm

2. Set the Winpcap installation into Compatiability mode for Windows 7 and install (Google winpcap windows 8 for more information). Here are some instructions to do this.
