Hello. If you want to use the "video downloadhelper" extension, then you will be offered to download an additional program to your computer and install it. I used VirusTotal and found some dangerous software. I found in Google what kind of virus it is and after reading information about it, I did not want to install this program. I think it can be dangerous for other users as well. See screenshots below.
