Hi,

  I've just come across an extension for Firefox (that works in the OS/2 
build) - to download the flash (flv) files for later viewing it's here:

http://www.downloadhelper dot net/

Cheers/2

By the way this plugin also does a pretty good job of listing a least a 
portion of the many, many video sites on the web as well (and has 
optional filtering to exclude adult sites).

The next problem of course is to get a native OS/2 program to play the 
FLV files. I guess you should be able to simply open them from your 
browser if you have no other program.

Cheers/2

Hmm, odd behaviour here.

I can't see the YouTube stuff that matters:
" String Fever (Bolero)
Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's
Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player (link)."

I have a lot of extensions, so if anyone knows which one/s are
useful/useless for this Flash/Javascript issue please tell me :-)

I am on Firefox 2.0.0.11 with 
DownloadHelper enabled (default Preferences)
Flashblock disabledNoScript enabled Whitelist includes ytimg (YouTube) but
ads.doubleclick dot net is blocked

Best regards
