I forgot some thing , that is how to work it out for Windows 7. Hard to find the hidden files in Win 7

In your Start window, type in %tmp%. That will take you directly to the temp folder where the show is being buffered.

If you click on the "Date Modified column" so the newest file is on top, it should be the show you are viewing and want to download. What I do is after it's done downloading I just drag and drop it to the folder in the left column. Then I change the name to whatever I want and the extension to px.

Several things I do on a system when I get on it - first thing is to tell it to show the file name extensions (I HATE it when windows decides it is an "Outlook file" for example for a template file ".pst". I also turn off the hiding of the hidden folders. I also (in this case because of how often I am looking there for stuff) create a shortcut on my desktop to the temp folder It's tough, but I can out stubborn windows

Hey Mikey,
Can you please explain how to set the file extentions to show. My system used to show my file extension, but since having repairs, now they don't show and I can't remember how to make this change.

I'll beat Mikey to it for once, as he will still be sleeping as his timeclock is several hours behind mine

Open 'Control Panel' and select 'Folder Options' and click on the 'View' tab. Part way down the list untick 'Hide extentions for known file types'. While you at it I would also change the 'hidden files and folders' option to 'Show hidden files and folders'. This is a MS method of hidding some files/folders from view so they cannot be deleted, if you do not delete willy-nilly this is qite safe and can prove useful at times.

Brian,
Thank you for that memory jog. Much appreciated.

Joyce, it's only retired people who are allowed bad memories, bad joints, lay-ins, and many more things that I have forgotten.

You are welcome.
