To do what you are asking, you will have to use your own file handle.  That 
means using InternetReadFile() and WriteFile() to download the data yourself 
manually insted of letting WinInet do it for you.  Since you would be using 
your own file handle, then you can store the file whereever you want and use 
whatever filenme you want.
