annoying issues

that I hope someone can help me with. I recently upgrade to IE8 and these
are a couple of issues that are annoying to me.

with IE7 when I saved an image to a folder, the next time I wanted to save
an image it brought me to the same folder location, but currently with IE8 it
takes me to My Documents.

also with iE 7 when I wanted to save a Favorite, once I saved one that
location was there the next time I wanted to save one it would once again
take me to the same location, but not with IE8 it brings me to the top of the
list of my Favorites.

does anyone have any ideas how to correct this?

thank you
