How can I capture/download a Flash animation?

I honestly know of no tools that can do this. All I do is manually search for the file path in the HTML code, create a temporary HTML file on my comp linking to the SWF file, and do a 'Save as'.

Complicated but that's the only way I know to do it.

What do you mean by:"create a temporary HTML file on my comp linking to the SWF file" ?

I know for sure there is a program that captures de flash animation but can't remember its name...

This site will answer all your questions.   http://www.whatisflash.com/forums/index.php?action=vthread&forum=1&topic=35  .   An SWF file is the flash file extension.  You will find what you want to copy in your temporary internet folder.  To copy it, it must be in the form of a HTML FILE.  (Choose "SAVE AS..)  I found several programs by searching Google, but they were not free.

Thanks for the link.
