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.
