Files you've downloaded are automatically saved in the Downloads folder. You can always move downloads from the Downloads folder to other places on your PC.
To view files you've downloaded while using Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer, select the Tools button, and then select View downloads. You'll be able to see what you've downloaded from the web, where these items are stored on your PC, and choose actions to take on your downloads.
Open Internet Explorer, select the Tools button, and then select View downloads. In the View Downloads dialog box, select Options in the lower-left. Choose a different default download location by selecting Browse and then selecting OK when you're done.
Internet Explorer uses add-ons such as Adobe Reader to view some files in the browser. If a file that needs an add-on won't open, you might have an older version of the add-on, which needs to be updated. When you download a file, Internet Explorer checks for clues that the download is malicious or potentially harmful to your PC.
If Internet Explorer identifies a download as suspicious, you'll be notified so you can decide whether or not to save, run, or open the file. Not all files you're warned about are malicious, but it's important to make sure you trust the site you're downloading from, and that you really want to download the file. If you see a security warning that tells you the publisher of this program couldn't be verified, this means that Internet Explorer doesn't recognize the site or organization asking you to download the file.
Make sure you recognize and trust the publisher before you save or open the download. They just go ahead and do it. And of course, your email program could be checking for and downloading email.

So if you have an infection of some sort, your computer could be downloading or uploading all sorts of things. It could even be sending email; a classic example of one of the ways that botnets are used. This article talks about using a Windows 7 utility called Perfmon to see which programs are accessing the network. It actually does a pretty nice job of showing you which programs are connected to something out on the internet; which ones are downloading lots of data, and which ones are not.
This can possibly at least give you a clue. Sometimes, unfortunately, the clue is very obscure. For example, sometimes Perfmon will show that the process called svchost is the one doing the download. But on the other hand, sometimes it will be really obvious. Give it a try. Subscribe to Confident Computing!
