FlashGot is the best add-on ever created! It immediately gives you a list of every flash video file running on the page, and lets you select which one(s) to download. However, FlashGot is not available on the newest version of Firefox. I tried the add-on that was supposedly similar to FlashGot and it is 100% awful. So, I am continuing to use the older Firefox version, but I would like to use the new version. Can anyone please help me? I am looking for whatever add-on is the closest to FlashGot. Or, can someone tell me if FlashGot is planning on making a version that is compatible with the new Firefox? Thank you,

Marc

You could try to contact FlashGot's developer :

Under 'More information' => Support Email.

But he hasn't updated his add-on in over a year .....
