    Hey everyone,
    Today is the Boeing 787 roll out and Boeing is broadcasting the event live on this link (around 530 CDT) I was thinking..is there a way to download the feed onto my hard drive? I have Firefox and the download helper addon and have had success downloading flash video but I haven't tried live stuff. Any help?

    Good thing you have Firefox; I've never really used IE before. Go to Tools, Add-ons, then at the bottom there is a link called "Get Extensions".

    At the site, search for the add-on called Unplug. There are several add-ons for streaming videos, but I can tell you that this one is pretty good. If you don't like it, try the alternatives.
