Just for fun or as a challenge, trying to save this Quicktime file to disk,
is very tricky. With curl (cygwin) i get

$ curl -O

480.mov

Hi Laurent,

To get the QuickTime movie, simply locate your temporary internet folder -
open it - locate the QuickTime movie and either:

COPY and PASTE it to your required location:

OR

Locate the QuickTime file - Left click (keeping your finger depressed on the
LEFT mouse BUTTON) and drag it to your required location (Usually the
desktop for me, as I can always move it later on).

This method also works with Macromedia Flash Presentations.

TIP:
===
For easier access to your temp internet folder, Right click on it and make a
copy on your desktop, then whenever you need something just follow the above
steps. You can still empty your temp files etc as normal.

Hope you find this helpful.

Dave.
 
OOPs,

I forgot to mention that you have to let the movie - clip etc fully load
first.

Sorry!

Dave.

Sorry but i'm too stupid to achieve it. I have try every thing, play it
in Avant browser, kameleon, firfox, Quicktime and Quicktime alternative,
and Cygwin curl.
In the QT players i can't save it *as source*, i can't allow the cache to
keep it ; i can't cup a first image to save the rest) In the browsers no
joy.
Need a detailled step-by step procedur.
