Hello
my little 3 year old granddaughter sent a link to me which was made in the
mall with Santa Claus. I really really want to keep this link but I am sure
it will be deleted after a certain time.
Question: how can I preserve or keep this video?
in other words: it's a link. When I click on it, a video starts playing..

I have never done this before, so please excuse my stupidity. But is it
possible to transfer this video or link to my computer to preserve it forever?

Thank you,
Sabina.

Can you give me the link? What is involved in the link, is it movielike? Look in
your Internet temporary folder after you visit the link, there maybe a .wmv or
similar video file, if there is, right-click, copy and paste into a folder on
your hard drive.

Hello Mary,
I also just looked - and it is not there. And now I am sitting here crying.
It really is a silly long story, but I would have given anything to keep
this video. No amount of money could replace this.
Thank you for trying.
Sabina.

Mary, I just tried it again. My x sent his link to me and it worked
beautifully.
Do you have an email that I can send it to? Please? I would be very grateful
if you could help. I simply don't want to lose it. Please?
Are we allowed here to display our emails? or can they be found in our
profiles anyway? I would be only too glad to give it to you.
Kind Regards,
Sabina.

Somehow the mail sent to columbis was returned as 'undeliverable'. In the
meantime perhaps you received the previous one that I sent to
msauer.mvps.org? I hope you got it.

Mary, I truly don't know what to say but your help in working on my request
has not only been amazing, but also very professional and unexpected. I never
ever expected this kind of help with my posting and I want to thank you here
with all my heart. I hope one day someone will repay your kindness with the
same token that you have given to me.
This has been very very important to me. I am deeply grateful.
Thank you.
Sabina.

If You Have Something like "Real Player" it has a cool little feature to let
you save most flash video you see on the web. Then you could save the actual
video where ever you want.
