[*] URL Helper - this app is suppose to unhide the hidden URL but I have had no luck.
[*] HiDownload - no success with this app.
[*] FLV Recorder - no success with this app. It recommends I use Hidownload and URLHELPER.
Forex TV offers RTMP .FLV video streams. The above mentioned Streaming Star products are not very good downloading such streams or finding RTMP URLs. Bit Recorder from Streaming Star is slightly better, but I recommend you to try Replay Media Catcher and Jaksta.

[*] URL Sniffer - no success.
Did you mean URL Snooper? The latter program is not good at finding RTMP stream URLs. Try Orbit Downloader or NetXFer.

[*] Camatasia Video Recorder - Interesting result. It managed to record the video as it played on my monitor online, but the filesize turned out to be close to 2 gigabytes. This video should not exceed 40 MB, so I don't understand why Camatasia is generating such a big file.
Did you mean Camtasia Screen Recorder?
Camtasia as a screen video capture program records anything that you can see on your screen. It doesn't download/capture/rip stream. To get smaller files you may use other audio/video codecs and smaller video resolution.
