You may have "Append", "part of article subject to decoding directory", 
checked.

For *everything* to go to one directory:

Go to "Groups" tab (between "Servers" and "Newsgroups"); 
select "Newsgroups" in the *main window* where your subscribed 
newsgroups will list; click on "Properties" above (to the left of "New 
Folder").

In the popup window select the "Decoding" tab.  In the top line choose 
your decoding directory and below that click the "Append" radio button 
that says "nothing".  Make sure the check box below that, "part of 
article subject to decoding directory", is unchecked

Click "OK" and that should do it if the individual groups have "Copy all 
settings from parent level" checked.  Otherwise do each group 
individually.
