Free Download for Windows

Download videos directly from your browser

The Ant.com Video Downloader will let you download, search the internet, explore your files and watch videos, all without leaving your browser.

Ant.com Video Downloader has five functions: Search, Download, Player, Explore and Rank. It also has a Help button that takes you directly to an FAQ section on the Ant.com homepage. The Ant.com Video Downloader Search feature lets you search either from within the Ant.com Video Downloader itself or takes you to the Ant.com website.

The videos are automatically downloaded to a special Ant.com folder. That's where the Explore button comes in handy, as it opens up the folder that contains your Ant.com Video Downloader downloads. The toolbar has more configuration options than the average add-on, and you can change the download location, as well as a few other options. The Ant.com Video Downloader player, which opens in a new window, is sleek with a large screen and is an infinitely better option than some of the horrible players available with other apps.

A small issue that popped up while using the Ant.com Video Downloader was the lack of a definitive list of the video sites it supports. It does mention that it is specifically for .FLV videos, but we couldn't tell if that means all .FLV videos. Bear in mind that on some video sharing websites, such as Google Videos, the Ant.com Video Downloader can't detect the name of the file and downloads it as Google Videos 1, 2 etc.

If you're an online video viewer with a passion for toolbars, the Ant.com Video Downloader will be right up your street.

Was once good. now sucks.. Of late, all the wheels have fallen off and it's useless. It used to be great. Now it's just a pile.

Yes, I can do it in one word! USELESS. As of late Ant Video is totally useless in Firefox.I have emailed you guys, and some of the suggestions work for only one session and after that it'll ask me to install things that do not work either. Just hopeless. It used to work brilliantly but of late it is just a piece of garbage Cons: Getting the downloads going in FirefoxAnd don't blame Firefox

Handy and compact video streaming downloader. Probably the smallest video downloader out there and works great for what it suppose to do. Hasn't got bells and whistles but seems to work on pretty much any site with an embedded video clip. Quite handy that it just sits up there in your browser and when it detects a video just click on the video link and it will download in your browser. Great if you want to watch the video straight away. Would be handy if it was also a download manager instead of just in the browser and being able to download to different directories instead of the default. But it does what it does, and does it well. Pros: CompactDownloads from pretty much any video siteNon intruesive on browser Cons: Option to save to other directoriesDownload Manager

Find someone to do the instructions, as normal, and make us happy.. Couldn't understand what it was actually doing and, of course, no voice telling you how to do it and where to go, etc. Come on now, can't they afford to have a real person go through the instructions???

Video too small.. Until today the add-on has been great BUT now using Firefox 6.0 and the Ant Downloader 2.4.3 all videos downloaded play very small in the browser window. They used to fill the browser window. Pros: Everything else. Cons: Playback size too small.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.
