I have downloaded most of the addons/extensions that say they will download flash. I have double checked my adobe flash plugin, downloaded any video converter, and real time player and I still can not download a flash movie from the web. It is NOT on you tube or any other video site. When I right click on the ad it says it is a flash movie.

Please help/advise, assist

Flash,Shockwave, and other programs can be found at http://www.adobe.com/downloads.html

Look for the links on the right side of the page.

This is the first thing I did and I already have flash but now what I want to do is download the flash movies from obscure sites to access later, put on ipod, cell, etc...these are NOT YOU TUBE VIDEOS OR VIMEO OR any of the more common which download easily. Have Photoshop, real time player and quick time player (free versions) and none of those seem able to do it either. Also downloaded several video converters but they don't help me gain access to the flash movie online. Plus many addons/extensions for firefox and those don't work either
