How to save Flash game files

Why would you need to do this? - While many students will probably never use this on work, there are some students whom may happen to find a flash game they really want to use in a presentation or some such.

How to do it? - T
his is a very simple process.
  1. Go to the site with the flash game and start the game
  2. Press Ctrl+U, then Ctrl+F
  3. In the search bar that comes up, type .swf
  4. If it is really a flash game something like this (http://uploads.ungrounded.net/531000/531437_finalninja.swf)will show up with swf higlighted, copy the URL listed
  5. Download the Orbit downloader from here http://www.orbitdownloader.com/
  6. Click File-Add URL and paste the two URL's onto it
  7. Download the FLVPlayer4Free from here http://www.flvplayer4free.com/
  8. When it is done, click on the file
  9. Enjoy!

*Note* This was done on a windows computer, not sure on Macs
*Note* If there is nothing like what is shown above after typing swf in the search bar, then it is not downloadable from the site(Newgrounds is one of the sites confirmed to work)
*Note* This is only for the Google Chrome Browser, it WILL NOT WORK on Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Safari
