Does any one have a simple way to grab a video off of You Tube and save it to my computer?

If you play the whole video your computer will save a cache file of it in temp. internet files.
Go to internet options and open your internet files and look for video playback files and save
them to your destop or whatever.
Make sure you have the latest FLV player. And this is very important, you need to add this extension name to it before it will play .flv if file is xxx then when your done it will be xxx.flv
When done you may have to open the first one with the player try dragging it over to the player first.Once you get the first one to play it should be automatic after that.
This should work a little work but not much.

I use a plug-in for for FireFox called DownloadHelper. Though it works for most videos, it will not download any protected videos, such as the ones that offer you to purchase an offline version.
