Can I get a shortcut to the Downloaded Files folder? When an file or app downloads from a browser (as opposed to installing directly), the downloads open up.

Otherwise, I can't seem to navigate in there.

Is there a way, on a stock, un-rooted Android, to navigate to the download list?

Update: browsing through "File Manager", I see I've been staring at /sdcard/download -- how does this view "normally" open after a file download?

I'm on an HTC Incredible, Froyo 2.2, but I'd expect this to be similar for most, no?
If you want to add a shortcut on your home screen to your Downloads folder or any other folder for that matter get ASTRO File Manager (free).  The app is pretty useful on it's own, but it also adds the option to create a shortcut directly to any folder on the homescreen.  To do this, simply long click on the homescreen, choose "Shortcuts", then choose "ASTRO" then choose the particular folder you want a shortcut to.

I had ASTRO for a while before I realized I could do this because the option is deceiving.  At first look I thought it would create a shortcut to the app, not to a specific folder like it does.

Edit: After reading Keith's comment I realized you are probably talking about market downloads.  In that case do what Al Everett said.
