Free utility for downloading videos from MegaVideo In order to download videos from video sharing site Megavideo you normally need a premium account which costs $9.99 per month. But Megavideo Video Downloader will download and save any video on the site for free. All you need to do is enter the URL of the video you want to download, click the add button to put it in your list of movies to download, and click the start button. Videos are downloaded as FLV files and can be converted and saved as AVI, MPEG, WMV, or FLV files. The utility will also tell you the size of a video file before you begin downloading. Now, there are many files hosted on Megavideo that have been uploaded illegally, so we of course don't condone downloading or even watching these videos.

Open Source Free Download Manager v3 adds tons of new features by Lee Mathews on January 7, 2009 at 02:00 PM Free Download Manager has released version 3 of their application, and the new version sports several new features that make it an excellent option handling all your download duties. The new release can now manage torrents as well as download and convert Flash video from sites like YouTube. A remote control feature has also been added, enabling web management of your downloads (like uTorrent's WebUI). FDM also allows you to preview certain files and can download partial contents of zip files. At about 18mb installed, it's not as lightweight as rolling uTorrent, DownThemAll, and any one of the YouTube downloaders out there, but it's an excellent all-in-one option for people that like to keep things simple. A full list of features is available on the FDM web site. There's no portable download on FDM's site, but Portable Freeware Collection has one available.

Tiny, free Photoshop alternative Fotographix hits Beta 3 Fotografix is an amazing example of what creative developers can accomplish in less than one meg. The 680Kb portable application is a very capable image editor and provides nearly all the same functionality I utilize in Photoshop on a daily basis. It was a no-brainer to include in my list of 40 apps you can download in two seconds. Only a few changes have taken place, but they're important additions. The last time this little gem hit DownloadSquad, the developer's server got hammered and the download became inaccessible.

Well then, I have the perfect piece of software for you! Desktop OK does one job and it does it great. It can remember your desktop icons’ position and restore them whenever you want. Just download the 37.5KB ZIP file from here and start the portable application. Choose your language (English or Dutch) and you are on your way. The console looks like this: So, my desktop looks like this to begin with (I am not a neat freak, trust me!) Now, I saved my layout by hitting the save button within Desktop OK. As you can see, it shows the layout and when it was saved. And then, I said, “WAIT A MINUTE, What did I just do?” I want my desktop to look like it did before. Do you use something similar?
