For example when user tries to download Adobe Flash Player, by default they will be asked to download the Adobe Download Manager first and then the download manager will then automatically download the Flash Player without showing the URL to the user. So let's give URLSnooper a try to identify those hidden URLs.
Look for http exe file and you should see a few of them. It is pretty obvious that the Adobe Flash Player installer setup file is http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe while the other two is the McAfee Security Scan and Google Toolbar.
