If you have Safari you can select the Activity menu and click on whatever items that may have loaded up on your current browser. For UToob stuff, just double click on the file with the biggest size and a file called get_video should download. Make sure to put .flv at the end of it and find a player like VLC to play it.

To the mods, If I wasn't supposed to post something like this on the board then I apologize.
 
you have a couple options:

1. Friendly Firefox
if you have firefox you can download a thing called videodownloader from http://www.videodownloader.net
and from there you just download them by changing the thing flv as they say to do to any format you want ex) wmv, avi, etc.

2. Interesting Internet Explorer
One thing i learned the other day you can do is go to your internet option and go to settings with cookies and there is a button that says view objects and go to get_video or something like that and copy that to where ever and change the format like i said in the above thing.

3. Quick and Cheap...a good thing?
What you can do is when you are on your youtube vid you want just change in the address bar change youtube to voobys, then do the same as #1
ex) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-HDGWUzggHU
change to:
http://www.voobys.com/watch?v=-HDGWUzggHU


There you go, Enjoy ^_^
 
Those a great suggestions! Another option that works with any browser is Camtasia by a company called Techsmith - you can download it from their site. This is not free software unfortunately but I think they have a free trial period of 15 days or something like that. It allows you to capture a video with or without audio of an entire desktop, a window, or any area of the screen that you choose. You can save the file in avi, mov, mpg and maybe some other formats.
