Capturing Streaming Video off a WebSite

I've been asked by some family members to save some segments of streaming video off an NTSB crash report. Its ".ram" file indicates that it's on an rtsp:// server (streaming video server I'd imagine) - and it's in a .smi format.

I've successfully saved and edited video files before (off the net and from a VCR) but not streaming video off a web-site. I assume that you cannot do it without a video capture card. I have a Rainbow Runner on an old Win 98SE computer but I'm not really sure what application would work with that.

Does anybody know whether the commercial versions of Realplayer, Quicktime or the Windows Movie Player have a "save" option?

Any other recommended commercial or shareware programs that might do the job?

Anybody aware of a "how to" website that might have useful guidance and directions?
