You'll need to install the free web browser Firefox.

You absolutely CAN download vids from youtube and probably already have. Check your "Temporary Internet Files" directory and it should be in there. Note the alpha-numberic ID each vid has that will be in your browser's address window when viewing at youtube (it follows "="). This will be the file name in the TIF directory.
As already mentioned, the Firefox extension does work well. You can also enter the url of the vid at www.keepvid.com and it will download the file to your computer. The previously mentioned VLC media player is excellent. This video is flash (.flv) and can be converted to avi. I use CinemaForge 2.0.5. The link is below.

If you use Firefox 2.0, you can download a extension called Video Downloader. This extension will allows you to download movies from YouTube and other sites.

Try using this site:
The "YouTube Video Download Tool"
http://www.techcrunch.com/get-youtube-movie/
To download a video to your computer, enter the YouTube URL for the video in the box on that site. It will be downloaded in flv format - use VLC or another compatible player to view it.

You cant. You can only link it to a myspace or blog, but you cant do anything except for that on youtube. I think there are some screen capture software out there, but iam no expert on it so beware.
