Hello All, I am having a problem when I download files from the internet. When I click download now. It will automatically downloads to my temp folder. When it is done my temp folder opens up and shows me this file. It also does not display the time remainning window. I do not know how this happened. Before I was able to save it anywhere and see time remainning on a download. I have checked Internet Properties but there is nothing. If anyone can help me please do so. I have Internet Properties set to defaults.

Usually when you download, you are given the opportunity to save the download to a particular folder of your choice. I have one dedicated just to downloads.
You might want to try stardownloader, an accelerated program, particularly useful for larger files. It has a number of useful options, and it's free. stardownloader.com
