Internet Explorer ddefault Download Directory Unlike other browsers (e.g. Firefox, Opera) Internet Explorer does not have a default download directory, IE usually 'remembers' the last download location. however, a default download directory can be defined with this little 'trick':
1. Open the registry editor and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer.
2. Create a new value of type String and name it Download Directory
3. Open the new value and enter the new directory. (e.g. c:\downloads)
works with IE4, 5, 6 and 7
