Solve : firefox 3.6 and orbit one click downloader extension trouble?

Answer»

hi, I just got refereed from http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?showtopic=112689&st=20
where a virus have damaged my orbit one click youtube downloader 1.0.8 extension on firefox 3.6
after removing the virus, the extension still not work http://i.imgur.com/4c5nH.png (screenshot). I reinstall both orbit and firefox so many time but it still appear like that.

a few THINGS I want to make clear
-I know this version of firefox is outdated, I don't use firefox often, but it the only version I know that still have the downloader compatible.
-I have look into orbit forum, but it a completely mess there and it look like it filled with spams and off topic so that no help.
-I know there are other youtube downloader (I have others on Chrome), but orbit is the only free one I know of that will download video from just about any site.
-I used the same installers that I downloaded and put it on a laptop and it work fine.

so could you please help me fix the extension or refer me to a similar free downloader that work with any site.

I just open internet explorer (don't judge me) and the extension on it is working, but the browser couldn't even load up more than 20 seconds of video before crash, who knew right? -_-
so what ever caused it is from firefox sideWelcome to CH.
Well, looks like nobody has a quick answer. As you kn ow, there are a number of browsers you can choose, all free.

The You Tube people may not want you to download stuff.
Please look at this link:
Legal liability for YouTube viewers
After that was posted on CNET the law has NOT changed.
This forum does not help with things that are apparently over the line of fair use of copyrighted materiel.

The link above is relevant. thanks for reply, I know that it would be illegal to upload copyrighted material. But what if I just want to download them for personal use, not uploading and sharing them, I do not upload anything unless I make them. And I want to use orbit because often there are important tutorials video that are uploaded to some obscure site and when I get linked to them, that site is outdated and/or the author move/sell the domain to someone else and I wanted to download them for future use/reference. It also save my bandwith to have a video available for me in the hard drive instead of searching it up again (if I can find it). And sometimes people who upload these kind of video just want to share their knowledge but they'll delete the video when they think it do not get enough view like they wanted (this happen so many times it making me frustrated which is why I downloaded orbit).

I'm a self teach ditigal artist and do work like this http://kuratowakiru.deviantart.com/#/d39aiah. This was one of my earliest work and it was from learning from a youtube video.

"Re:samurai DRAWING
Hi there I am so sorry i am replying to you very late from your original message..I have been so very busy lately on lots of commissions and have not been able to address my youtube channel... First of I would like to thank you for watching my videos . My viewers and suscribers are all very important to me and I VALUE their support. In this age of 3d computer animation us artists must strive to keep drawing and art alive that is the purpose of my channel to help young minds exceed me and take the art of drawing and keep it alive. Thankyou so much for placing a value in my work and feeling it an help you I feel greatly honoured that you should seek any guidence from my short videos. I think you have copied the drawing very well i am impressed with your shapes and choices.. prespective drawing is very tricky and by breaking it into shapes one can suceed better in it...Please keep at it I can see that you have good hand eye coordination. look at other images and break them into shapes also...This is the purpose of my videos I dont do an overly impressive dawing because they are only 5 to 10 minute sketches..but I attempt to illustrate to the viewer that the bare bones of a strong drawing can be layed out very quickly with basic shapes..its up to you how much further and how much time you want to put into it later. Keep at it and I wish you the best of fortune with your drawing!
best,
Arshad."


and my problem is what ever virus caused this, I believed it have damaged the firefox side, not the downloader, because I can use it in IE, but that browser is unstable. If you still believed that I download these tut vid for personal use such as these http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5CA6CE37EA6AEEFB&feature=plcp are still over the line and will not help me resolve my problem, then let me know
