Is Integration Module Download Manager safe?
Integration Module Download Manager sends URLs you right-click to a local native host that launches a configured download-manager program.
When you use the extension's right-click context-menu entry on a link, page, or image, it sends the URL through Chrome native messaging to the local host 'com.puupnewsapp'. That host launches the download-manager executable configured in the options page (defaulting to IDMan.exe) with the URL as an argument. The flow only runs on a deliberate context-menu click; there are no content scripts and no web page can reach it.

Where it sends data
Destinations our analysis observed IDM contacting. Sending data somewhere is not a finding on its own - an extension that syncs your settings has to talk to its own server - but it is where your data can go, and who else it goes to.
