Tell us a trick that you think, you know it only!

So you heard the title. Here's my trick that I think, I know it only.

Can you download a SWF media from a website involving ABP (AddBlockPlus)?

Here's how:

• Keep ABP on
• Go to any site containing SWF contents
• Click on a content that you like
• Let it load a bit
• Hover the mouse over the media - you will notice a ABP banner (Block) at top-right corner of the media.
• Right click on the banner and click "copy link location" from the list and paste it to IDM to download.
