Is there a tool or setting somewhere to find the directed URL from a webpage?

There's a webpage that has a Flash animation with links to streaming video...I'd like to find out what the directed URL is (so I can bookmark the direct video without having to deal with surfing through a bunch of other pages).

Thanks for any help.

have you tried looking in your temp internet files? (tools-internet options-settings-view files).

you can usually find the SWF file and then there should be a URL next to it.

edit; sorry ithought you were looking for the flash movie. not sure about the streaming video.

This one is a little tougher...

It's a webpage, with a Flash animation...The Flash file has the link in it:
Link

I want to get the link to the 300k Windows Media Player file.

I checked the settings files as you suggested, but didn't see anything that helped.

this work?

edit: nope, don't look like it.



try this.
clear all your downloaded content.
go to the site, start watching the file.
navigate to your temp internet files and find the wmv file and copy it to another location on your disk.


edit again. well nope, that doesn't work either as its streaming the whole time.


edit again: use this. it works but can't save it...
