Just to share an expirience:
I found a way to grab youTube videos. Some of are web sites where you put the url from YouTube and it gives you file with strange extension and small size. Some are really complicated.
My way was to use moviesherlock (moviesherlock.com or sm like this - please ask me - will rememeber). Really simple utility, that just works, and only 1 button in software.
I downloaded even HD movies!
But it looks too simple, has no player, but just works. It downloaded ~12 concurrent movies for me and actually slows down my system. Its possible to do search in and search results differs from what you see in YouTube. Thats strange.
Who knows - Tube search are same for same keyword? I loves cat (Simons cat / dog).
Why doesn't youtube allows to download its movies without external tools?!! It actually sucks!
Thanks in advance!

I may have to try that as soon as I get a new computer again. I better do not install that on my work computer since my last experience was not too encouraging. It was identified as spy ware and slowed down my machine and some folks monitoring the network got a bit mad at me.  |

Hello.
I am Miwasa Mekembo, wife of the late General TuTu Mekembo, head of all the armed forces of Burundi. While my late, dear husband was a patriot, he was keen to look out for our financial future should political instability arise. To that end, he amassed a fortune of some 3,200,000 US Dollars which he kept in several banks. Unfortunately, our government believes that my late husband did not earn this money legally and has confiscated these deposits from all but one of the banks. They did not discover 1,850,000 US Dollars in one bank because the account was opened in my maiden name. I am currently seeking a person of good faith and trustworthiness to help me transfer these funds into a US bank so I may rest easy in my old age. Your name was referred to me by one of the local American aid workers as a good person of moral fiber...and...
...and...
...ok...I give up.
This is a scam and I'm really, really tired of making this crap up.
Send me some Cheerios.
Please?

looks like scam to me too. The link is suspicious as far as I looked at it. Since I
only have my work computer left I will not check out the link itself. Too dangerous.
I took out the links on the post. - the download file looked like spyware

Hmmm... It looks like moviesherlock might be real, but I didn't trust the link either.
Myself, I use the Download Helper plug-in in Firefox. It downloads everything as a Flash video, (.flv), by default, but can be set to convert to another format during the download. |
