The downloaded file is being moved from a temp location to "C:\Downloads". I assume EVNLLAIZ is your user account name and that C:\Downloads is where you chose to save the file. In any event I see this behavior all the time running Vista Business Edition. But for me it only happens with very large files. Otherwise smaller files are moved so quickly I dont see the progress dialog.

This is ABSOLUTLY normal behavior (and this does happen (less frequently) with large files on XP as Well)

Never saw that before. Either on my WinXP or on this (new) Vista Premium.
I have never heard of the "EVNLLAIZ," therefore, not my 'user account.'
I save all my downloads to my "Downloads" folder and they all go directly there when I download them; that is why I question why this "EVNLLAIZ" 'double' download.

Also, didn't see before when I downloaded previous version.

I've only seen it once before on XP when downloading I think a service pack from Microsoft. If you were using Internet Explorer it may be copying or moving the file from Temporary Internet Files to your download location.

EVNLLAIZ is a temporary folder. After reading Andavari's post I took a closer look at the folder name and realized its not a name. Its 8 random alpha characters.

The file was downloaded to the temporary folder and once complete, moved to the location you chose to save it. Despite how it appears, you didnt 'double' download the file.

Thanks all.
So I can presume that the EVNLLAIZ was removed from my Vista after the download?
Guess we'll never know why this happens on one machine (Vista; IE7) and not on the other (WinXP; IE6), which were both downloaded while IE was open; and one after the other.
