I can't get to the movie because of my employer's firewall, but what format is it in? Looks like it might be RealMedia. There's most likely a way to save it, just need to know what format it's in.

it has three options. quicktime, media player and real time.
56k, 200k are free. 500k has a price tag?

Did you watch the quicktime version?

You might need to have quicktime pro installed to be able to save the movie directly from the plug-in interface. (As a workaround, you usually can go to the movies link and do the whole "Save linked file as..." thing)

You could also try viewing the page source and seeing if you can find the movie file's URL (you may or may not be able to find the complete address, depending on how the site is coded). Copy that to your address bar and let it load. Then, choose File:Save and you're set!

Go to MacOSXHints.com They have a few different ways to download un-downloadable quicktime movies. Do a serch for download and quicktime

Incidentally, this is precisely the kind of subject line that you should never use. It tells nothing about the subject of the thread.

(I'm not saying this to be the Board Police. It just helps both you and us to know what the thread is about.)
