    i had the same problem never in the folder,the files were downloaded just sat somewere else, try doing a pc search if they are there and you know the name of the file you downloaded you will find them.

    Have you tried to change the save folder in firefox: ???
    In IE it should be a similar thing to do.

    This seems to be a common problem with vista.

    I do not use vista myself but the info at the following page may be useful:

    Unable to find or start the installer after you download a product from the Adobe Store (Windows Vista)

    Hope this helps.
