you will need a video converter to convert the .flv(flash files)into a format that windows MP recognizes,like .wmv or .avi or .mpeg files.do a google search on video converters.i just don't know if there are free programs out there,but who knows.best of luck.

The best way is to use TubeHunter to save youtube videos as AVI or MPEG which can be played on Windows Media Player.
===========================
TubeHunter downloads YouTube/PornoTube/xTube videos to PC/iPOD/PSP

first, get them converted into a common format, such as mpg or avi, then you can watch them on windows media player or you can edit them through windows movie maker

use ffmpeg to convert them to mpg or avi.
ffmpeg is open source. get a binary build for windows.
type in dos prompt to convert to mpg.
ffmpeg -i video.flv video.mpg
use a site like http://downloads.sourceforge.net/gallery/ffmpeg-win32.zip?modtime=1123406130&big_mirror=1 to download the binary
