ok heres a trick that will work without a download manager and with IE:

1. Go to the site with the swf file you want saved.
2. Click View>Source
3. Click Edit>Find
4. In the Find box, type ".swf"
5. Highlight the path of the .swf file. It should be something like /home/flash/funny.swf
6. Paste the path of the flash onto the end of the URL, this may be a tricky part, as it will depend on how the site is coded and where the flash file is hosted.
7. Take your new URL and paste it into IE. Make sure you can see the flash.
8. Open up a new IE window. Go to GF1.com forums.
9. Start a new thread or reply to a thread.
10. Paste the flash URL into the post box. Make sure it has URL tags around it.
11. Click on "preview" rather than submit.
12. The post preview should come up.
13. Right click on the URL and click save target as.
14. Choose your name and file path and save away.
15. Don't be an idiot and accidently post the link.
