Subject: small request in the WinHttrack GUI

In a future build of WinHttrack, I'd be grateful for a removal of the
confirmation-nag from the "pause download" dialog.


____________________________________________
Argument:

The pause command needs no nag, as it is not something that is accidently
clicked. (One has to dig around and reach up for it from a menu). 

Nor is something that needs confirmation because of involving serious action
(In contrast to sw confirmation dialogs for delete & removal actions; or in
contrast to an action such WinHttrack full stop & close of a downloading
project mid-way.)

Personal:

I use the pause feauture constantly, having a thin thread of bandwidth, where
sometimes my active task needs full resource -- then toggling back to have my
Httrack instances download when processes such as web-browsing are idle. 

I have never gotten used to the nag on the pause, it is always unnatural and
unexpected. I expect to tap it and then task-switch back to something else
directly. In fact, often I'll find that when I thought I had paused
Winhttrack, and then return to it as active window, I find that little nag
dialog sitting there, pointless waiting for the confirm.
