I'm running Win XP SP3 with all current patches applied.The only changes I have made recently are to change my privacy settings to clear all history when I close Firefox.I also downloaded Advanced SystemCare recently. I tried the proceedure to rename mimetypes.rdf in the profile folder,but that didn't help.

Under the Downloads section, what is Save files to set for?

It is set to my Desktop,which is where all my downloaded program files have always gone.I am running FF 3.6.12 with all updates applied.

The problem seems to be fixed.I did a 'save image as' from 2 different sites and the default was the My Pictures' folder. How did you fix it,and do you know what caused the change? I really appreciate your help.

I ran Advanced SystemCare,and the original problem reappeared.It must be something I have set in the options for ASC,but I can't figure out which one. Can you tell me what you did to fix this for me on the 14th,so I can change it back and get rid of ASC?
