Where are my downloaded files and how can I access them

I've read several posts on the 'sandbox' and 'virtual drive' but there must
be a way to permanantly set permissions to be able to see them... right?
What a pain in the neck if not. Thanks in advance for any help. And oh yes,
I spent 5 hours downloading build 5728 on Vista Beta 2, then couldn't get to
it so I spent another 5 hours downloading on my XP machine. I am now running
5728 on this laptop.

Go to the general vista forum and search--there are several threads about
where your missing file is. And it isn't that you don't have permission, it
is just hidden and not accessible unless you know where it is.
