File saving locations with FireFox

[AppleNewton]

I was curious if anyone could help me out on this.
I recently did a clean sweep of my system drive and am keeping most things external for easier plug-n-play and swap capabilities.

Currently by default Firefox saves downloads to:
MacHD > Users > AppleNewton > Downloads

So i changed that to point to my external drive:
Volume > Downloads (folder on drive) > Firefox

so when i say goto apple.com and download programs or utilities it prompts the Okay to download and it saves it to that destination.
(since it does not auto-launch)

So my problem is those files that auto-launch another application say..iTunes, VLC or uTorrent.

I download torrent file, it saves the package to the Downloads section but within uTorrent I can send it to a different completed folder.

So i just need to find out a way to get the auto-launch files to be saved to the Firefox downloads folder on the external drive, isntead of defaulting to the MacHD>User>AppleNewton>Downloads folder

it seems to only do it when the item is selected as Open With when using Firefox.


hope that made sense


thanks!

there is some addons for firefox to download different type of files automatically to different folders.
