    Hi! it's a simply tutorial I've made to this forum which you'll can save Macromedia flash files (*.flv and *.swf) in your computer, for example, it's useful when want to play OFFLINE any flash game or want to watch any youtube music video...

    1) REQUIREMENTS:
    1.1) Windows XP/98
    1.2) Opera browser (free)
    1.3) FLV player

    2)STEPS
    2.1) Steps for swf files:
    2.1.1) Install and start Opera
    2.1.2) Visit any flash games site like miniclip.com
    2.1.3) Select a game
    2.1.4) When game finishes loading, search for "Opera" folder in your hard drive
    2.1.5) Now go folder "cache4": .......\Opera\profile\cache4
    2.1.6) You will see a file with this format or similar "opr03ZE6.swf"
    2.1.7) Move or copy file and play with any browser, you got it!

    2.2) Steps for flv files:
    2.2.1) Steps are similar, visit youtube
    2.2.2) Watch full video
    2.2.3) "Point 2.1.5)"
    2.2.4) A new file with *.TMP extension appears, rename it to .*FLV extension
    2.2.5) Copy or move file and open it with FLV player "point 1.3)", you got it!

    That's all!

    Nice, could be useful. So it's just limited to these 2 formats?

    No, you can get shockwave games.
    In IE go to your temporary files folder, and they are all there, SWF, DCR, all files. It's great. This is how I got all my game for my website.

    Do not use IE, I got my PC infected for using IE having my antivirus and firewall updated just for surfing with IE, I like Opera, that's why I made the tutorial for Opera.

    By the way, I forgot to mention that *.DCR can be extracted too.

    Regards.
