Sometimes, we found some flash animation that integrated at the website. Maybe the flash is a funny animation or movie. We want to keep it on our harddisk, but there isn't provide the download link. How can we get this file?

Internet Explorer doesn't allow you to save Flash animation to your hard disk directly. But it does save it in its cache every time you view a Flash movie on a web page. Flash Saving Plugin will solve this problem for you!

Mozilla Firefox has built-in features to save Flash movies. When viewing a web page:

1. Right-click on the web page;
2. Select View Page Info;
3. Switch to the "Media" tab;
4. Select the Flash movie you want to save;
5. Click Save As.

To browse the Flash movies cached by Firefox, you can use SWF Cache Viewer which comes with Flash Saving Plugin and SWF Opener.

Now you can save your flash file on your harddrive.
