Changing the Save To Dialog Box Locations

I want to change the My Places locations in the Save To dialog box in
Internet Explorer.

I've found many easy and quick solutions for MS Office, but nothing on IE.

Does anyone have a suggestion?

Hi Thomas,

What's the OS you're using?

You can use Tweak UI (for XP) to customize the Places bar in Common Dialogs.

Thank you Ramesh,
One question, when you change the Download direction, isn't it still that IE
download to a hard coded place and THEN copy it to the location you want? or
will the download go direct to the folder you specify in TweakUI?
Thank you

Yes, IE will download the file to your TIF (Temporary Internet Files) folder
then copy it to the destination you've specified.
