Saving streaming files

Does anyone know of any software that lets you capture streaming videos?

I have tried programs like Fraps and Taksi, that allow you to capture footage from video games, but they cant capture other things like video.

Can anyone help?

for real media i use StreamBox!VCR
for windows media i use Net Transport or ASFRecorder
for quicktime i use notepad and getright

for windows media use asfrecorder or windows media recorder 8 (free). wmr 9 is pay now, but you can find version 8 lying around on the net. for real media and quicktime use streambox vcr. streambox vcr also works with windows media.

I have tried net transport and streambox before, with no luck, but I will try the others mentioned, thanks.

Does anyone know any programs that physically capture the video on your screen instead of just downloading it?

camtasia, hypercam, snagit, easy video capture, screen2video, screencorder, camstudio, wincam 2000... i could go on and on and on. type record screen on the search box at download.com
