Download the file is missing. Not asked where I would like to save file, only the 'Save' button appears

When you download a file, I ask me where to save the file.  He asked me just to save it or not.  Then, after you save the file, I try to find the file, but it is not in the usual directories when I download files.  I tried to download from CNET.  This just started today.  Don't remember any recent downloads either.
That's happened? It is not under My Documents to my profile or my Local Settings\Temp directory either.  I did a search for the file name, even in hidden folders.
I am running Windows XP Home Edition.  [By today standard T - Rex, but it's the only one I use for office work, no video editing work.]

Hi WingersMedia,

  1. What web browser do you use to download the files?
  2. Are you having a similar problem with all files or any download specific file only?
  3. Are you able to download and save files from other sites?

I suggest that you try to download other files on the same site and check if it works.

I suggest you check that the recording location of the file when you are prompted to save the file and check later to this place.

Also check out the link below to put on with similar problem and check if it is useful if you are using Internet explorer as your web browser.
