If you have watched the video previously, it may still be in your computers' cache. This means the video is stored in a folder on your computer. You can retrieve the video file from Internet explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome and many more easily with a tiny software (around 75 Kb). It is called Videocacheview.
