Can you explain what you are trying to download, and full details about what dwhelper is.

Please give the full title and version of the software and where its support site is. Have you asked on or researched the issue on dwhelper's support site ? Perhaps it is a DRM issue

I have tried all sorts of videos from facebook and bbc and also many from random search on google videos for drag racing. All have the same result shows downloading but nothing appears in the relavent folder.

dwhelper was downloaded from Firefox add ons video download helper 5.3.1.1 signed. It has been nothing but trouble since the latest upgrade and on the last few version updates of Firefox.

Thanks for the replies but neither seem to work. The link to dwhelper is indeed the one i meant so I have tried reinstalling it still with no success.

Thanks again for your assistance
