    Hi CiDaemon,

    I was wondering if you could show me how to download this online magazine so that I can view it offline or on someone elses computer. I've tried all the methods you've shown but to no avail...



    Thanks in advance,
    David

    VLC plays FLV videos. And I also recommend Fire Fox with the Download manager. Excellent!

    When I click on that likn, the video does not load. Where did you get that link, how did you obtain it? I get this message:

    "ERROR: configclip.xml not specified, or the contentpath of the video can't be found"

    I saw this forum, and how brilliant some members are, so I was hoping someone could help. I found a website that has a bunch of "interesting" videos. However, all are embedded with Adobe Flash...but they don't appear retrievable...at least not by the likes of me. If anyone can help me retrieve them, it would be much appreciated. The web address for the video I am trying to retrieve at this time is:

    http://www.2adultflashgames.com/f/f-hot-striptease.htm

    Thank you

    @spinova and @rothsch2
    Both videos are easily downloaded using Firefox and the DownloadHelper extension.

    Doesn't work...but I found a backdoor way using a Hex editor. The flv files were encripted, and the swf files were dummy files that were merely set up so users could not download the files. Silly people.

    Not true, it works flawlessly. I just tried it using Firefox with the DownloadHelper. There is no encryption, the file plays on my PC right now.

    No, I did not have any luck with those yet. And the DailyShow one doesn't work with FireFox.

    Is there anything else you would recommend me trying to get the file? Like a certain program or method?
