    I presume you are using Iexplorer as your browser. I have not used Iexplorer as my "default" browser for some time now and as I understand the default download folder is a little harder to change now. Have a read at the following site...
    Changing The Default Download Directory In Vista ~ Windows Fanatics
    As you can see the "default" should be in your "mydocuments" folder when using IE.
    If you are using another browser let us know and we will try to help you further.
