Well for me, it's at the same directory level as my Shared folder. eg: C:\Documents and Settings\LOTR\Incomplete

Likewise the default downld location is:
C:\Documents and Settings\"your account name"\Shared

Use your comp search engine to find it ... type in incomplete & search the entire comp. ;)

BTW the desktop is a terrible place to downld to. Instead create a shortcut to it & put that on the dewsktop. Else go to LW's Library window & select Saved Files & press Explore button & this will open it for you.

If you have logged in to a different account that might explain why you can't see your incomplete folder.

Excuse my ignorance, but why is the desktop a terrible place to download to, and how would i go about creating a shortcut there?

More difficult to organise. It's safer to downld to a particular folder. You desktop will fill up with lots of icons quickly. And if you downld a virus, you will have major issues. If you save your files to an isolated location then you can scan the files & even if infection does get out, it will mostly be limited to that area. The desktop is not a wise place for any type of storage.

To create a shortcut for the downld folder, select it & go to File>Create Shortcut & tell it to place it on desktop.
