VideoGet --> A $19.95 software that downloads youtube videos and can convert to various file types if you specify. It works well, I haven't had a problem with it. I got it free on giveawayoftheday.com when it was there, I still have the install and license key for the program if anybody wants it still.  :)
Just noting that my solution is 100% free. No installation. No downloading (other than the movies you want).

Firefox Add-on: Video DownloadHelper.

Method: Use it to download the .flv file from youtube (or any other website) and use Quick Media Converter to convert the FLV file to another format (WMV, AVI, ect).

Otherwise, use VLC Media Player to play FLV file.

A lot of people who are experienced enough to want to download youtube videos would probably be using Firefox.
BTW, the icon can be removed.

But still internet explorer still has the greatest number of users among web browsers .... anyway....


http://downloadyoutubevideo.org/

You can also download youtube videos via this website I listed above. It works, I just tested it out right now. And the websites can work for most of the websites, not restricted to only internet explorer. What if you're at work, and you find a useful youtube video but the IT techs have locked  your PC to internet explorer as the browser so you have to use it?

The best solution would be to realize that downloading youtube video's isn't what your paid to do. Although they cannot "lock" the computer to IE. firefox can be installed on a flash drive.

Then you can use the solution I gave, because the .flv s (when you don't have VLC or anything else downloaded) don't load properly, so you convert them to .wmv

Your suggestion was very vague, Squall. And besides, I thought we were suggesting ways to download Youtube videos, not to force people who read this FAQ to follow your method.

Remember, this topic is in the FAQ board. We are providing different means to get Youtube videos saved on your computer.
Hopefully people come to this topic instead of the hundreds of other different methods which are top results in Google.

In reality, your comment was directed to no one, Squall.
