Save Tube Video allows to download any online video right from the browser in few easy steps.
You just download an .exe file and run the installation process. After the installation has been completed, your browser’s tool bar would have two new buttons – ‘Save video’ and ‘Show status’.
When you play any online video, you may save it in any location of your PC by clicking the ‘Save video’ button. After that the video in browser is being played as usual, and its ‘hard copy’ is being saved to the chosen folder. When you click on the ‘Show Status’ button you will see the current download status. You may pause or resume the download using the Command field of the download status window.
The software works well with Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, it doesn’t slow the browser down.
Save Tube Video also allows you to download two or more videos at the same time which is very convenient.
The program is a must-have for anyone who likes watching videos and especially for those people who would like to watch them offline.

The Bad
* Browser dependent – only works with Internet Explorer and Firefox.
* Need to keep the (annoying) toolbar – no way to isolate just the necessary buttons.

does it work with Chrome? I’m a big fan of Chrome.
Vista sp2 + IE8 + FF3.55:
1) Install, register well;
2) When on Youtube and click on ‘Save video’, a popup comes out saying “There is no recognized link to video. This happens to my both IE8 and Firefox 3.55.
Final verdict: not for me, uninstall it.
