Which browser are you using, (IE7, Firefox, etc.)
IE7 downloads to the desktop or your selected download folder and in Firefox
you can designate which folder you wish to down load to.
A suggestion which I use is :
Create a new folder named 'Downloads" in the "Documents" folder and direct
your browser to download to that folder, you can create a shortcut on the
desktop to the "Download" folder--
Normally when you download, the download box appears and ask what you want
to do with the download, install or save, at the bottom of the box it
indicates where the file is downloaded to.

im using ie7, i have done all that and saved it onto the desktop but still
have the same problem just can not find the file

If a "search" does not bring up the download, try and download a check what
happens when the download box appears and take particular note where it says
it is downloading to.
What are you trying to download and from which site?
Have you got another browser installed that you can try.

Can you see other icons on the Desktop? If not, right click the Desktop and
choose to view icons.

You can also try navigating to the Desktop in an Explorer windows using the
breadcrumb address bar and see if your file appears there.

i have no other browser, it is a anti virus from download.com, i have got
this program from here many times with no problem. when it finished the
download box just goes, i have unticked the box so it should stay to allow
you to open the file or folder but that does not happen, i could try and
install firefox do you think that would work?

It looks like it is going to be a process of elimination, I would try another
browser just to see if its a problem with IE7.
I have conducted a search of MS knowledge and so far no definite answers

Does it only happen on this website?
Have you tried to download another program from the same site?
Have you attempted to download from another site?

By default, IE-7 download all the program on Documents folder.Open
windows\Documents. It should be there.
