Is there a setting in IE that defaults the download location for a file?  I have many users that will download a .csv file which is used in access, and I would like to ensrue they download it to the same place everytime...it doesn't have to automatically save there, just has to start there in the download box.  Thanks!

I can't find a place to set the default...

IE appears to default to the last place you saved a file.

at least that option doesnt require you to hack the registry...

Those solutions unfortunately don't work...and I have googled enough in IE to find it...if I had a registry hack, that would be fine also.  I know firefox enables the default download location with no problem...but, I'd like to keep it uniform with IE.
