    It comes with OpenCandy - an installer which bundles legitimate applications with offers for additional third party applications that may be unwanted by the user.

    I use 4kdownloader.
    I have tried some but find 4kdownloader the best.
    4kdownloader gives mp4/mkv/flv/3gp videos & mp3.

    Its just that I found Ummy & dont know its safe or not, so asked here.

    These tools feel a bit fishy to me. I recommend YTD Video Downloader.

    Most of these YouTube downloaders are fishy to begin with. =V

    A little recommendation, check the software whether or not they are listed on popular download hosting websites (Softpedia, MajorGeeks, SnapFiles, DownloadCrew, etc) and if they are, see if there is a warning mentioning if the software contains bundles in the installer package. They usually give such (very helpful) notifications.

    I guess this is one popular online site to download Youtube videos.
    http://en.savefrom.net/1-how-to-download-youtube-video/

    On this site Ummy Downloader is mentioned.

    I couldn't find it on popular download site.
