I cleared the cache in my Temporary Internet files folder. When I run a directory of Temporary Internet Files, all that is shown - that remains - are my Cookies.

However, when I look at the "Properties" of Temporary Internet Files, I am told that it contains 211 Folders, and thousands of files representing 20+ Mb.

I remember, once when I ran scan disk, getting an error on a file something like "content.ie/OTY96HG1" (something strange like that). I suspect that is what these folders/files are.

Can anyone give me some help? What are these files. Why can't I view them?

Thank you.
