I use Avast Home Edition, I downloaded the video twice, and everytime it started then Avast detected 6 or more viruses from it

It might just be me, but is anyone else is experiencing this?

The video is an .avi file, and 100% virus-free. I have never heard of a virus being spread via .avi file by the way.

Nope. Like said above I also don't know of any virus in an .avi - I think your computer is having a panic attack

Thanks 711... maybe my antivirus software is just jacked up...

I downloaded it again without a problem, the rocket part was the best

re people who can't view vids

you have a very capable video player installed on your computer called "media player 6.4" - its been there for years and it is the best.

you just need to install something called ffdshow to make it play everything massively efficiently.

....

incidentally can we go back to the old server? I had to restart that download about 8 times

That was wierd - VLC had to try playing it a few times before the video appeared.

Before that, I could only hear the sounds.

The VLC player has no problems playing the Xvid format.
(Check your system ?) :S

Did you Right Click the video and used "Save as" ? :p

You can also download the xvid codec:
http://www.xvid.org/

Or try the ffdshow which Wistrel already mentioned:
http://ffdshow-tryout.sourceforge.net/

...to make it play with other mediaplayers.

If you dont want that, check the youtube link:
