    .flv video file, what am i supposed to do with it?

    was on the internet (version 6 on xp sp2) and was watching a video that i wanted to store on my pc, so opened my temp folder to find the file, anyway i found it but its a .flv file,

    which wen i google .flv it says it a flash video, anyway i want to convert it to avi or mpeg ,


    if i open it with media player as it is i get no visual output and just a load of screeching!

    any suggestions?
