Can't help you much there, it depends on where you told it to save it as, though if you used mozilla to d/l it, you can try d/ling another file and see what directory mozilla tries to save it in. I've used that trick before when I forgot to tell it to save it in the right location. >=20 > I'm just having a bad day. BTW Win XP is working flawlessly, just to=20 > rub it in.

If you really want help with this, it would be nice if you asked with a little less whining and trying to tell us how well XP is working doesn't help much either. If FreeBSD was worked as flawless and easy as XP in the areas where XP is better than there would be no reason for anyone to use XP anymore and the world would convert to FreeBSD. >=20 > Rob >=20 > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.o= rg" --=20 I sense much NT in you.
