Is there a way to save you-tube videos to your desktop legally?

Legally? No.
YouTube's ToS prohibits you from saving any content to your desktop.
However you CAN contact the person who posted the video and ask for a copy. If they send it to you, this is both legal and free. Also a lot easier and safer than trying to use third party software to 'rip' it.

Of course, if the material does not belong to the poster then it is still illegal.
I am referring to obtaining materials from Youtube legally- Youtube and the Poster retain copyright ownership of videos unless the Poster relinquishes it.
So if the copyright belongs to the poster, then they can send it to you legally.
You CANNOT rip it from youtube legally, under any circumstance, due to Youtube's ToS and copyright laws combined.
