Postscript: LOL I'm not very good at this. I have software that lets me save YouTube videos to my hard drive, but the videos on the foudation's website say "This video is no longer available" and when you try to click the "YouTube" link on the bottom of the frame it just goes to a blank page. Does that mean they deleted the YouTube account?

I seem to remember one guy said to me YouTube and FaceBook and other companies like that never actually delete anything they have off their servers, at least for some statutory period. They just make the link inactive, or so it goes to a "no longer available page, or something. He said if you have a "hard" link you can sometime get it back. That was year ago though. They've probably made their deletion process more secure by now.

Try hooktube and you be able to snatch it from the google server. What are the links?

These are the URLs of the videos on the main page:

In my browser they go to a blank page if you click on the YouTube link icon

How do you get things from Hooktube?

You change youtube to hooktube, right click the screen, choose save vide as. Works good. You can choose webm format too for smaller file size. In this case though it looks like it might have gotten scrubbed from the google server because neither link is pulling a result. But this is what a link should look like. same 11 numbers at the end.
