comments, I have already tried searching. And besides that, I've tried several tried and tested methods which have failed me this time

-the VideoDownloader extension in Firefox
-checking the Temporary Internet Files folder for IE
-checking the source and attempting to download the file directly

The video in question is located on the following page

http//www.devilducky.com/media/44186/

For those who are too lazy to try attempting to download that video will instead get you some sort of placeholder video the site put up so that you can't snatch the video you want.

Does anyone have another method or perhaps a program which can grab a video from a website?

haha I've seen that one before. It's on Youtube. You can get it from Youtube by using one of those Youtube Video Ripper sites. Just insert the link, click "Rip", it'll give you a link to download from. You get it in FLV (flash video) format and can convert it however you want with conversion software (don't ask me where to get free conversion software, I'm looking for that myself right now for OSX)

You can play FLV with VLC.

videodownloader.net
Don't use the extension, use the site itself. Thats how I do it.

Sometimes when you click the link it wont work. Click the videodownloader.net extension button, then close out the actual youtube or whatever page and leave only the videodownloader window open. Then try to download it.

Just right click goto video page info then to media and it is there as vadervspolice1.mov. I just downloaded it.

If you can't get it to work I can send it to you if you want. Just AIM me.
