Mozilla Firefox Tips: Store flash files from web pages

I usually suggest Mozilla Firefox to my friends and customers. I find it great browser compared to other popular options.
Now a days, we see a lot of flash contents on almost every web page. Sometimes we like to extract them an keep them, like some flash games or presentation. There are utilities available for doing this on IE. But is easiest using Firefox and you don’t need any plugins or any external software to do this. Here is how to do it:
1. open the flash site on your browser
2. press ctrl+T to open a new tab
3. in the url space type about:cache?device=disk
4. the page that is displayed, contains information about the local disk cache, “information about the cache server page”.
5. now press ctrl+F. Find tool bar is displayed in bottom of the browser
6. type swf in find space
7. you will see some Key with a link address
8. You can check out this file by clicking it
9. if you want to save the particular file, right-click the link in “cache entry information page” and select save link as. Of course you can check-out the file by clicking on it!
10. That’s all you have to do to download flash stuff from a web page. No third-party tools needed. Well if you don’t find it in one go, go back to “information about the cache server page” tab and continue your search through out the page, you will sure find it out.

Happy Flashing!

You can download Firefox from here, its less than 6MB. Sleek and Fast.

First Letter – Introducing Myself Part 1

Hi!
This is supposed to be my first ever blog. Well, when I decided to begin writing blog, I certainly have certain ideas and concepts and something-something in my head – definitely!
I intended to fill up this blog with program source codes, and sharing software/hardware knowledge, and discussing topics on System Analyses and Design, Software Engineering and any technology related articles. Something I like most is surfing the net. So I would like to share my favorite websites with the readers.

WHY AM I AT ALL BLOGGING? AM I ELIGIBLE FOR WHAT I’VE DECIDED TO DO?
Critiques may say that there are plenty sources on the net, which provide the above stuffs. Why then a novice then needs to jump into these? Well that’s what I liked to do. I like to share my ideas with all people if ever anybody care to read my blog. Further I want to turn my ideas and knowledge into words and reality.
Everybody likes to cherish what he has, what he knows, what he feels proud off. Me too. Well I well come active criticism and I would consider myself lucky if the information I provide, is of any use to anyone. Today I rate myself as novice but I want to be a guru in whatever field I dig into.
Thanks!
