I know this isn't exactly an "OverClockers" question, but I always get the best answers here. As it turns out YouTube doesn't want you to be able to download videos, so topics like this are banned from their forum. I know it would be so easy to just use FireFox all problems solved, presto! However as I'm sure most of you are aware, there are those who cling to IE as the end all be all internet browser, and won't try anything else, even if it would ease their life immensely. I've found a couple of third-party software programs, but they all convert the video to FLV which is not really a great format. So adding the step of getting another program and converting it to AVI or MP4 makes it sort of a long process. Is there anything out there for IE that will download YouTube videos free and in an AVI or MP4 format?
 
I think the flv format is what they are mostly.
