    Which browser though?

    With Internet Explorer, when you download a file, it displays a Run, Save or Cancel window. If you click Save it then displays a Save As dialogue and you can navigate to any folder on your computer. Select the folder, then click Save and that becomes your default download folder.

    If you're using Firefox, click Tools - Options - Downloads (on left hand panel) - Download folder (on right hand panel at the top) and select the 'Save all files to this folder' and navigate to your required folder.
