stealing files from sites

------------------------------

this is a simple tutorial about stealing files such as flash from a web site.

1. find a site that hosts the flash file you want.

2 right click and select view source. this will open the source code of the page
you are looking at.

3 look for the file you are wanting to steal in the source code. in the case of
flash this will end in .swf i.e www.domain.com/files/flash/game.swf

quote:
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-
444553540000"codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swf
lash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"width="176" height="233" id="flashname">

<param name=movie value=" http://www.domain.com/files/flash/game.swf ">

<param name=play value=true>
<param name=quality value=high>
<param name=loop value=false>
<param name=bgcolor value=#ffffff>

now copy the url http://www.domain.com/files/flash/game.swf to your clipboard and

open note pad.

this part requires little knowledge of html.

make a html file and code this

code:
<a href="www.domain.com/files/flash/game.swf"><b>file</b></a>

now save it as .html and open it in your browser. if you done it correct you
should have a page that only has the word "file" on it. now right click the word
file and select "save target as", save it to your desktop and you all done.

of cors if you have a download manager it should allow you to drop in a url to
download but the windows downloder dosnt let you do that.

also sometimes files will be saved into your temporary intermet folder and you can
retrieve them from there.
