Firefox always defaults to the Mozilla directory when I try to upload files.

I always upload files from D:/Temp on my computer. Regardless of how many times I've done this Firefox always defaults to c:/Program Files/(x86)/Mozilla Firefox and I have to navigate to my upload folder. Is there any way to change this behavior?

I am pretty sure it just remembers the last folder hat you navigated too. Perhaps clear the cache and cookies for the site to see where that resets to. However this will depend on the site you are uploading to as well.

It was enough help! I found Firefox does default to the last folder. My problem was created because I was uploading from a subfolder within my d:/temp directory and then deleting that folder. Since the subfolder was deleted Firefox could not go to the last folder and was defaulting to the Mozilla directory.
