I updated to Firefox 6.0, and now I can't download real time videos from You Tube. Do not get the pop up box to download video, or the download choice when I right click. Firefox 5.0 downloaded videos no problem. Have latest version of real player and flash.

Your version of RealPlayer is probably out of date. Try this: Open RealPlayer> Click on drop down menu (top left of screen)> Click Check for Update> Update to RealPlayer v.14

VOILA!

I have the same problem and it's extremely annoying. I give it another hour or so of research, after that, ..... back to Windows explorer for good.

Updates to real player don't have the "download this video" function after version 11.
