Video Dowload Helper (for firefox 3.5)

Video Download Helper (for Firefox 3.5)
Firefox Add-on

First of all, A very Happy Independence Day for all the Indian Folks... :)... Proud to be an Indian ... Yay us.. :)
Now... gettin to the topic..
So, i jus had some problems with the GETGO download manager while i was downloading videos, and i badly needed FLASHGET for SOME situations (ill tell you why i need Flashget for somesituations)... Video Download Helper is very similar to Flashget.

Now getgo is a really cool video download utility, but ... Let me tell you a situation..
You know what you want, cos youve already seen the video, so u just go the page, click download and there u have it, the video is on its way to your hard disk. But it takes time for the video to download. Now in this case you can use both getgo and the firefox addons.
Consider this case..
You're watching a five minute video for the first time and you love it and you want it on your hard disk, now
(i) If u use get go the download will start from the beginning and itll take the normal time needed to download a five minute video..
(ii) Using a firefox addon.?.. Since the video has already been loaded in the browser.. the download gets over in a jiffy..!!... two seconds and there u have it ..!! can be pretty useful right.. try it out...:)

"Video download helper" is a firefox add-on tool, meaning you dont have to install this as a seperate software in your pc, it combines itself with the firefox so when you uninstall firefox u automatically uninstall the add-on too. Now lets get to the advantages of this tool.
I'm a big fan of firefox, especially due to the level of customizations that you can do on it to suit yourself and your needs. This software has just become a new addition to my firefox addons. (although i need to specify here from personal experiences, that using too many add-ons and themes in your firefox can slow it down). Im using the latest version of firefox, Firefox 3.5 and i couldnt find the usual video download tool i used to have. The "Flashget", now this is a wonderful software as well, although that is not our concern here right now...
