Orbit Downloader is a download manager for Microsoft Windows. One of the main features of the program is its ability to grab and download embedded Flash Video files from sites like YouTube, Dailymotion, Metacafe, etc.[3] Orbit Downloader also accelerates downloads by acting as a peer-to-peer client, utilizing bandwidth of other users.
