Hello:
many times, when I was downloading a file and the download get interrupted.
My question: where the donwloaded files are temporarily stored, and still
they occupy space on the hard disk after being interruped?

Thank you

By default, the download folder for Firefox is:

C:/Documents and Settings\<username>\My Documents\Downloads

If you have any files in that folder that you don't wish to keep simply
delete them.

You can change the download folder setting to use any folder you wish for
downloading files:
Click on Tools||Options...||General tab

Good luck,

Donald Anadell
