when try use internet download manager(idm) in order download, opens new tab , until stop loading page, download not start , idm shows connecting. when stop page load, download starts idm.

while in normal download via browser, starts download.

what reason it? new framework, appreciated.

update

i noticed happening in chrome , not internet explorer.
