Default Imagehost Grabber-Imagebam & Imagevenue

Today I could not use Imagehost Grabber to download files from Imagebam.
[Firefox 3.6.12, IHG 1.6.4] so I updated it to 1.6.5 via Tools->Add-ons->Extensions

Still, no joy.
So I went to http://imagehost-grabber.com/ then to the forum:
http://forum.imagehost-grabber.com/
Where the answer seemed to be:
"Updating the Host File"
Here is how you "Update the Host File". [which needs to be a sticky on their forum IMHO]

Firefox's menu -> Tools -> IHG -> Host File Editor -> Update from online host file -> OK.
________________
Now the magic part
By updating to 1.6.5 I can now download imagevenue files and the result is the original filename!
Good riddance to _120_460lo
