Replace the ending of the filename with .flv and start your ftp client.
Go to your CPG dir -> albums -> userpics -> ##### (# be the number shown over the filename, in my chase 11438)

While you download the file, scroll all the way down in your phpMyAdmin window. Hit the [Go] Icon and logout from phpMyAdmin.
Convert the file you downloaded to FlashVideo and put it back on the server so you have both files there in the same directory (keep the source, someday you'll need it)

Sorry to put it here, I hit [Post] by accident and now I can't undo it -.-
Why did you post twice anyway?
I was writing a request when it came to me that I could do it myself. I wrote the HowTo and somewhere in the middle I hit (post) instead of (preview). Unlike you, I don’t have the (edit) button so I posted the final thing here… didn’t really know where else to put it :/
