In previous versions I was able to tell Firefox where to put downloaded files but I find no way to do this now. Is it possible or is it a function of Windows 7? I am new to ver 7-like 3 days and so far not wowed. In the Forefox drop down there is a heading for downloads but it only give me a window with a review of what I have downloaded. I then have to go an search for the file which Windows has buried in the ozone layer(no changes there!).

no need to reply-just figured it out-the menu bar was not there so I was able to figure out how to put it there
