Downloading and saving films

[Joseph]

I have Windows XP Home SP2 with Windows Media Player version 11, VLC Media
Player version 0.8.4.0, Cyberlink version 5, and Nero vision Express2.
When I receive an email with a short film I can save it in "My Videos"
folder. The type of file is Windows MediaAudio/Video file and they open with
Windows Media Player.
I also have some short home movies on DVD disks and although it is possible
for me to view them on my PC and also to copy them to a new DVD disk I am
unable to download and save them to a folder on my PC.
Can someone please advise how to do this please.
