Download Helper

Download Helper is a small yet effective add-on for Mozilla Firefox that enables you to download videos and photos from youtube, metacafe, megavideo, etc. Actually it works with all the websites that I've tried so far and everything downloads smoothly for no extra cost. The thing is with download helper that it doesn't actually downloads from the website its more likely to transfer the already downloaded file from your temporary internet files folder to a user specified folder. It actually grabs hold of the file, since most videos delete them selves once you navigate away from the page.

Download Helper is not a standalone program, therefore it doesn't offer much. As the name suggests it's only purpose is to download. No conversion is done to the files and you have to find another software to do the trick.

The main advantage of Download Helper is that it does not have restrictions, meaning that you can download any video from any web site around the globe. If you can see it you can get it. Plus it doesn't take much in regards of computer resources just a couple of KBs from your HDD and a similar amount from your RAM which makes it light and efficient. As the picture below shows Download Helper is only a small icon with a drop down menu.



Download Helper comes with a database of supported sites and when I say database I mean a real humongous database not just a couple of links and references.

You can download Download Helper from Here.

*Download Helper is only available for Firefox no version for IE is available yet.
