    Does it happen all youtube videos or just some? Some youtube videos employ encryption so you cannot download them easily. Plus discussing how to goes against the rules of this forum

    Is Internet download Manager up to date? Seems like it is sending a request to the server it does not like so is refusing it. An update may resolve it
