There is however another possibility that will suite many Veoh users. The Greasemonkey script “Adds a link to download original file for Veoh” makes it possible to download the video right of the Veoh portal without installing third party software to do the same. Once installed the Veoh page will contain a button named Get URL which will display the download link to the Veoh video next to it when pressed. That download link leads directly to the full version of the video on the Veoh servers.

It will download normally just like any other file in Firefox. It will most likely work in download managers as well but this has not been tested.

File sizes can be huge depending on the length of the video. Tests revealed file sizes for Veoh videos of more than 1.5 Gigabytes which might take a while to download considering that the downloads will not be with full speed usually. The average download speed was between 60 and 100 Kilobytes per file from the Veoh servers.

That is however no the case. One of the main principles of Greasemonkey is that the scripts are site specific. They might work on multiple sites but they are usually limited to less than ten sites in total.

Greasemonkey is displaying “No Scripts Installed” because the script has not been designed for the currently active website. To see that a script has been installed the user needs to visit a site it is compatible with.

Only there will he be able to use it and configure it if the script provides that functionality.

Megaupload is a file hosting service on the Internet that is displaying a captcha before the download link of a file will be shown on their website. The captcha is probably one of the easiest to recognize and fill out, pretty useless from the standpoint of defeating bots and annoying to users who download files from Megaupload regularly.

Megaupload auto-fill captcha is a Greasemonkey script for Mozille Firefox (and other compatible browsers) that will automatically fill out and send the captcha on Megaupload. This essentially means that the user does not have to enter the captcha nor click on a button to send it to the Megaupload server.

It practically feels as if there was not a captcha on Megaupload at all. A short explanation of Greasemonkey. Greasemonkey is a Firefox extension that can be installed just like any other extension in Firefox. Once the extension is installed it is possible to add so called userscripts to the web browser.

Those scripts are coded in JavaScript and change the behavior and look and feel of websites automatically.

That’s probably not something that the user wants to see. The problem here is that the developer of the extension added the means to disable the add-on for selected websites but not the other way round. This means that there is no option to turn the add-on off globally and only activate it for specific sites. It is only possible to turn it on globally and deactivate it for specific websites.

The developer should think about adding that possibility to his add-on to make it more useful for users who want to invert colors on just a few websites. An alternative for the add-on is the Darken script for Greasemonkey which can darken the background of specific websites.

The Firefox add-on is currently experimental meaning that user’s have to log into the Mozilla website before they can download and install it.

The Greasemonkey script requires the Greasemonkey extension when using Firefox. Google Chrome users can read the Google Chrome Greasemonkey article for pointers on how to add the script to their browser while Opera users can head over to the Greasemonkey in Opera article to do the same.

The installation of the Greasemonkey script should not pose any problems. Firefox users do not have to restart the browser, the new script will automatically work in new tabs and after reloading existing ones.

The keyboard shortcut [ALT 1-3] switches between the three available modes. Pressing [ALT 1] will use the default way of displaying search results in Google while the other two numbers will extend the display with one or two additional columns.

Google Multi-Column View works with all language versions of Google Search.
