Still can't find it, lol I've been checking my temporary internet files for it, and all I get is the link to the advertisement, the play before the initial video.
Well you were almost right, but you missed a couple of things.
Quote:I'm trying to find the source of a video. All I know is that its an .mov file
Do you think Microsoft would be caught dead compressing their video(s) with Apple's QuickTime? I don't think so. They compress their video(s) with their own proprietor video format, Windows Media Video (WMV extension). Where the .mov extension came from is beyond me.
Streambox only captures streamed real audio files. getASFStream is your best bet because it captures streamed ASF or WMV files. Frontpage gives you some clues as to where to locate the file but there are other codes that arn't listed in the html file but make references to other files, so you would have to look elsewhere.
The link shown above is hard coded, which requires furthur disection.

You were right to look in your temporary internet files folder to find the content but it's not completely there. This is what you need to look for.
Once the page has loaded the video, you will need to go to your temporary internet files folder. Sort the folder by type and look for anything with the name Windows Media Audio/Video playlist. The file will be around 4.00 KB.
The one used to find the video was named: ad_content.aspx?i=1&m=us&g=ofd57c6e-f54f-4bd0-aeac-621d49142f44&pg=MSVSST&hl=Jeter leads off
Copy that file and put it on your desktop. It will rename itself to ad_content[1] or something similar.
You may notice that it has an extension of ASX and not WMV. ASX is Advanced Stream Redirector File, in English it's simply a playlist directed to the real video stored somewhere on Microsoft's website.
Open the file and see if it plays the right video. You may get the stupid ad along with the video your looking for. If it's the right video, you may close your player. Now right click that file and highlight open with. It will bring up the open with dialog box. Use notepad to view the content. Make sure that Always use the selected program to open this kind of file is not checked. Click ok.
You will have to do a little digging to find out where the actual video is stored on their server.
This one caught my eyes:
