Browser Question: please, please, please help
How do I save some of the videos from the following address?:
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/bomb/sfeature/videos.html

My students will begin a week-long project tomorrow esentially mocking the civil defense schlock from the 50s, and I need to save these files individually to a CD in order to show them.

I recall something about finding them in my browser cache... I'm running XP and using Firefox, if that makes a difference. My kids have really been looking forward to this unit, and we'd really appreciate any help you could give us. Thanks!

1. Right click on the movie once it has fully loaded...
...and select either SAVE AS SOURCE or SAVE AS QUICKTIME MOVIE.

Assumming Windows...

5. Try downloading from here
Forget the PM. I put the movies on my web space. Unfortunately, I couldn't get the first movie, Operation Cue. It doesn't load fully for me.
