How do I save a .asf file from the internet locally? I want to download an entire clip and save it to my hard drive instead of streaming it so I can watch it. When streaming it keeps pausing all the time. Help. :)

You can right click on the link and you should see "Save Target As..." This only works if it is a direct link to the asf file.

This maybe help? http://www.mamselle.ca/asf2.html


aaaaaaand maybe this:

Well, you can. You just have to rid yourself of the oh-so proprietary Windows Media Player! Remove the program (takes 5 seconds) and restart your computer. Then click on the movie link and it will give you the "save to disk" prompt. When you're done downloading what you want, re-install the media player (takes 30 seconds) and view the movies all you want!






But I think you're lookin' for an easier way ;)
