    "I dont get it is it real"

    August 29, 2010  |   By Tsubasa-wing

    Version: YouTube Downloader 2.6.1

    Pros

    All the cons given in here, i give a test, non of the problem happen in my window 7. All go smooth as what i want

    Cons

    no cons, except for the connection to URL is a bit slow compare to the previous version

    Summary

    Ok give in detail testing, i used wifi to test, the download speed never stop running as i download 34 MB video, previous i try too is about the same
    Malware ? is that so, i have malwarebytes and microsoft essential no problem so far
    Previous comment is totally fake, no such virus inside, i have superantispyware with me all do scan nothing detect in youtube downloader. Still working properly
    Believe it or not, you may choose, download test it my window 7 have no problem at all, except detect the URL is slow only
    For those who have the previous version who want to upgrade to newest version, my advise is dont uninstall the old version direct install new version, no crash at all, as i always do that even in window xp. And never never install toolbar as i always never believe good things come from there. All are spam even for other toolbars too. Enjoy the use of this youtube downloader, you choose to try or not. is your choice. And please PC any problem before you comment here. DONT SPOIL THE GOOD PART OF YOUTUBE DOWNLOADER

    "More site download capabilities, more problems"

    August 29, 2010  |   By EclipseWebJS2

    Version: YouTube Downloader 2.6.1

    Pros

    YTD recently added some new sites to the list of supported sites, like Veoh and Facebook, so it's quite possible for users wanting to download videos from there to get a copy...

    Cons

    In the prior update, there was a problem with video downloads with Facebook because it had kept saying, "Sorry, your login was incorrect." Facebook's login format had been email/password.

    Summary

    Aside from the malware accusations that had recently cropped up, It's still mediocre, but the development team needs to work out some -ahem- BUGS and squash that malicious toolbar from their code. Just for once, everything on this site has to be tested 100% spyware free or it won't make its way on this page again. These new malware/virus accusations are not only demoralizing the state of the program, but it's turning away potential new users.

    August 29, 2010  |   By arrawn

    Version: YouTube Downloader 2.6.1

    Pros

    Nothing good to say about a program that just refuses to work.

    Cons

    Everything,

    Summary

    Since I've upgraded from Downloader 2-6-0 I have been unable to download anything. This version 2-6-1 starts to download,but never gets past 60% before just stopping,sadly as this is not working for me I've uninstalled it and it appears to be impossible to get a download of 2-6-0,which was GREAT.

    "New version contains malware"

    August 28, 2010  |  

    Version: YouTube Downloader 2.6.1

    Pros

    None. I used the old versions successfully and loved the software. The newest version caused my antivirus software to warn me of a problem.

    Cons

    The new version installs malware called MyBrowserBar. My Ad-Aware program notified me of the malware. It removed it. Also when I tried to install Youtube Downloader again, Ad-Aware would not let me install the .exe.

    Summary

    For the longest time I was using the old versions of YouTube Downloader
    successfuly, but the latest version is a problem.
