    I needed to capture a 'video' of whatever i'm doing
    in my PC screen. Any programs you guys can recommend?

    that this person use to capture HIS screen;

    (PS: I know that the outcome is flash, but i just want to know
    the program which he use to capture his screen as it's very
    very clear)

    At the moment i'm using this software
    called 'Camtasia Studio 5'
    However, I do not know if this is the 'best' one that i should
    be using~
