There are many ways to get videos off the net and YouTube but most cost dollars! I do not have money to spare so try anything for free. So …
Go to http://keepvid.com/ and download the Free FLV Player program. Install this program. Do not bother to add any of the extras offered/suggested during the installation process as they are not necessary for this purpose.
Find the video you want to download and want to see off line. Copy its URL.
In the box on the http://keepvid.com/ page paste the URL of the video you want. Click to download. Now look lower down the screen (below the grey bar) and find Download again and click on it.
It downloads without a file extension and with a silly name. So rename it and give it the file extension of flv. If you have the Free FLV Player program installed, open the new flv file with the Free FLV Player program. Great! Acknowledge the creators of the video. So easy and you can now view the video offline.

Hi Pam, Real Player version 11 allows you to right click and download.
