Limewire is DEAD!? Download Helper is here to help
BREAKING NEWS!!! Limwire no longer works!! And honestly I have not used it in almost 5 years!! So, many people on the internets are at a lost due to limewire's shutdown. But there is something better for those of you that would like to acquire songs that you like or even videos as well. Be warn may get addicting, I showed some friends how to do this and they got addicted. First you will need Firefox because this is actually an extension and not a full blown program. Next you need to add the extension Download Helper.
Once installed you may download most music and videos from site like rhapsody or youtube and more. See the video below as an example: (Note: I am using FireFox 4 Beta 6 so your interface will look different)

Once installed go for a test run for example rhapsody.com as shown above
play a song and then right click in the browser outside the player
go to downloadhelper option and then go to media and there you should see a name of an mp3 file
click it and save it and it should be the last song you played.
Try the extension out at the following sites:
http://mp3.rhapsody.com/home.html (let's you preview entire songs ;) )
facebook.com (videos)
In addition, Downloadhelper provides a list of supported site when your right click and go to the downloadhelper option.
