Download and convert YouTube movies…

One  of the most interesting tools I found was Vixy.net Converter, a small beta application which downloads and converts YouTube videos to many formats. You just copy the videos link and paste it in the application, select which format you want to save, and that’s it. It supports divx, mov, mp4, 3gp, and mp3 only.

Firefox 3 and bookmarks

   Posted by: Vlad    in Windows

Firefox is curently at version 3.0.1. I’ve always used it and I am simply in love with it. I have the same profile wich i am using since version 1, and every time I format my computer or change it, I simply copy back my profile folder and point profiles.ini to it. A few days ago I did a little “house keeping” to my bookmarks and observed that the file bookmarks.html in my profile folder was still the same. First of all I tried to figure it out by myself, but I had no success, so I googled it. I found out that since version 3 firefox doesn’t use anymore bookmarks.html but places.sqlite in the profile folder. Bookmarks.html is still used for import/export purposes.
