For SeaMonkey 2.0.x:
/home/<username>/.mozilla/seamonkey/<profilename>/Cache
When you view in Nautilus you can easily identify the flash video. Video
remains until you clear your cache. Also found something interesting;
started a youtube video, then paused it. The entire video kept
downloading even though it wasn't being played. You can then copy the
file to some other folder to safe. Only problem is is you use SeaMonkey
2.1bx: That version (plus Firefox 4) uses 16 folders for cache rather
than a single cache file, so you need to search a little harder.
