It helps people to help you if you tell us what system you're using (Windows, Mac, Linux etc). One thing that I do when I'm on an unfamiliar system and forget to pay attention, is to go through the motions of downloading another (small) file from somewhere, and look out for any clues for where the browser tries to put it. This is often the quickest way. For example, most browsers remember the previous folder that you used to store a download. Others, and Windows may be one of them, always default to a pre configured user folder with some alias, like "My Documents" or "My Downloads". This usually appears in a filebrowser dialog at some point during the download. By opening the location listbox at this point, you see the tree view of that location. Otherwise, as suggested, use the "Find File" (by name) feature of the system. If you've forgotten the filename, go back to the download site and check the URL or descriptions for clues. For example, the download file for the Windows version of OOo 2.0.1 is named: OOo_2.0.1_Win32Intel_install_wJRE.exe On Windows I think you can go "Start - Find" Regards.
