Specify download location

I want to be able to specify the destination when downloading via the web to a PC that does not have Dropbox installed.  Dropbox seems to default to the Windows default download folder, and I cannot find an option to change this.

    That's a function of the browser that you're using, and not Dropbox. Look in settings/preferences/options for whatever browser you're using.
