Unsure where to make to changes so my downloads will go to another hard drive instead of the "C" drive under documents.

ausing Firefox 8.0 with Windows 7 64-bit, I could not locate to area where I change the default location within Internet Options. Used to work fine under Windows XP. Any idea where this default is set under this application?
