    J-Downloader is more of a specialized downloader than it is a download manager you can use with your browser for general downloads, and is not a good alternative to Internet Download Manager.

    It does everything IDM does, but more - and it can handle file hosters much better, specifically premium ones that require accounts, or multi-account ones. It's just a lot easier to use. It has a great browser add-on, works with youtube, plugins, including one for unpacking archives, and is updated constantly. It's also free! If you want the version that isn't bundled with stuff, do a search for it, it exists on their on forum :)

    DownloadThemAll is just a Firefox extension while Internet Download Manager is a complete software that works on all browsers
