With TweakUI under "my computer" "special folders" you can change location of your temp internet files folder back to the original and delete all the extra folders you made.

Goto:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/p.../powertoys.asp

and on the right-hand side click the regular (non-Itanium) TweakUI to d/l. Goto the location I mentioned in the previous post to find the setting.

P.S.: I would think that moving the folder via internet options would accomplish the same thing, but if you want to try it this way, go ahead.

For future reference, whenever you change things around, Windows likes it when you reboot. Go figure, but glad to hear you solved the problem.
