Free YouTube downloader
« on: November 24, 2012, 09:56:21 AM »
Does anyone know of a free yet safe YouTube downloader? I have a power point that I want to fill with cool videos and I need a downloader that's not going to infest my work laptop.

I haven't done any downloading for a bit, but I was using ATube Catcher.  It does more than just Youtube.

I haven't noticed any spyware.

If you use Firefox then there is an extension called Download Helper

I'm not that familiar with powerpoint, so I don't know what video file format you need.
I use Realplayer to download flash videos, generally in .flv format. Then I have a program called Prism Video File Converter, the free version of which can convert these into .avi's if I need them in another format.

It'll be a cold day in hell before I ever run RealPlayer again.
