There is a video on a website that opens in windows media player but i cannot download it. I have tried recording it using frontcam but it did not work. Does anbody know how I could get this video? I can post a link to the site if it helps.
Thanks In advance.

If you're using FireFox then there's an add-on called 'Download Helper' which is good for what you want to do.

Thanks but it did not work. The file was in ms-wmv format and would not play.
I think the file is copyrighted.

There's a few programs that *claim* to be able to record a stream, but don't bet your money on them. If Firefox with the "UnPlug" extension won't get them, then you might as well go with a screen-capture application like SnagIt. I use it a lot, with the Divx codec, and results are pretty good.
