You could try going through IE> Tools> Internet Options> and select "View Files" under the "Temporary Internet Files" section, this should show you everything in that folder. (your sig shows XP Pro, still accurate?)

I'd say you have hidden folders/files set to "don't show" but then you wouldn't see the "Local Settings" folder, I believe...

Just a shot in the dark, you are logged in as Admin correct? I imagine you wouldn't see Administrator's files at all unless you were logged in as Admin....


my 2 Cents
