"Your download should start automatically."

We've all seen these. Question is, where is the original file stored? (Well obviously you can't tell me that) But where/how can I find where the file is being sent though the http header?

On a particular page of interest, In Safari, if I click 'Download linked file as...' I get download.cfm. Obviously, that file is using headers to download 'file.zip". In the Downloads window, I see 'file.zip', but the Copied Address is the same path as download.cfm.

So where is file.zip coming from?!

Note: Live HTTP Headers in Firefox didn't tell me much else. I found "Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=file.zip" but that doesn't give me an exact path. Any thoughts, ideas?
