Saving a video

[Mikey-]

A friend send me a video on Mercury Messenger and when I opened it I wanted to save it but where it says "Pro Save" or "Pro Save As" they are grayed out and it wont let me click it.

How can I save the video?

I don't know what Mercury Messenger is, but having the option Pro Save (as) greyed out, means you need Quick Time Pro to save the video.

What file format is the video in?

Can't your friend send you the video by other means? eMail or file hosting like rapidshare?
