I could sure use some advice please

[/SIZE Hi, what do you think is a good free program to try for downloading video off of the internet? All I seen to be able to find are utube downloaders and although I do like utube most of the things I want to download are from different sites.. Thank-you very much for your time

Hello and welcome to MG's
If you're using Firefox, I'd recommend this

Cheers..

 

Thanks for that sikvik, just installed it and it works very well

 

I think a browser is the internet explorer right? And I have windows XP, Do you happen to know what a firefox is? Thank you very much for answering my letter.

 

Firefox is a web browser too and many consider it far superior to Internet Explorer.

You can download it here

RealPlayer (which is free) has a FABULOUS "Download this Video" link which allows you to download almost any video, music, or movie from the web. You'll find the link up in the top toolbar under Tools, Preferences, and it's in the "Download" section. Try it, you'll love it. When your video/movie/music comes on, just move your cursor slightly toward the top of the screen and the link appears. Click on it and Voila! When it's complete you can click on it to play the video in Real Player or go directly into Real Player and acess it through My Library.

 

Another faster and, to me, excellent alternative to Internet Explorer is the Opera browser.

I want to thank-you very much for taking the time to give me such wonderful and complete directions. It's encouraging to kniow that some people do care and may karma bonk you on the head with many blessings

 

Thanks snottyprincess, my karma hasn't been very good, so I could sure use a blessing bonk!

 

I don't think that I really understand what a broser is. Can you have more than one? Is it like the internet explorer? Does it affect the internet carrier that I have already? I would be yvery greatful for any help you had the time to give me.

Like Internet Explorer. Some are lots better and safer, in my opinion.
And you can have as many as you wish.

 

Thank you

 

I wanted to make sure that you knew that I have the real player and for once I could figure out right awas how to use it. When I was in school and college knowing how to type and use a 10 key adding machine got you a job! PEACE
