I have uninstalled secret helper so that download helper will return back to its original working but it's not.My videos downloaded by download-helper are still disappearing. I have re-installed Firefox so that effect of secret-helper will die and i will be able to use download-helper as usual but videos downloaded by download-helper are still disappearing. I am very disappointed that I am unable to use your download helper.

Try a new Profile. Secret Helper may not have removed all its preferences when you uninstalled it.

Do you see in the Download manager that the video gets downloaded?

You may have security software that removes the files if they are downloaded but do not appear in the dwhelper folder.
