Not to sound like a smartass, but:
# pwd
should tell you what directory your files are in. Unless you specifically
gave wget a destination folder to put files into, it should download them
into your current working directory. It would not have created a folder
called mirror.pacific.net.au or whatever; it would have just put the files
into the directory you're currently in. When I used wget earlier today to
get the gpg keys for the kde-redhat repository, the file was placed in my
current working directory, no subdirectories created or anything like that.
