well i really dunno i use Firefox 2 (best browser in my opinion ) and you can find your tempoary internet files in this path

C:Program FilesMozilla Firefoxtemp

IE7 temp files are located here...

C:Documents and Settings*USERNAME*Local SettingsTemporary Internet Files

you can find your tempoary internet files in this path

C:Program FilesMozilla Firefoxtemp

I don't have that directory on my systems with Firefox.

It's hidden, you have to set to show all kinds of file i've found this directory after enable it AppData was hidden

C:UsersAppDataLocalMicrosoftWindowsTemporary Internet Files

Slightly off topic but...

To download embedded files such as .swf and .flv using Firefox you could also try the Download Embedded add-on.

That way you don't have search through temp files and folders.

[Edit] Sorry, It doesn't work for YouTube. I have never used it for that before.

i already set my settings to show hidden files and folders.

but when i go here

C:Documents and SettingsnameLocal Settings

theres no Temporary Internet Files folder

about the firefox

ok how do you save files such as .swf? i've installed the download embedded add-on on my firefox2. but when i tried to save the .swf file i want on some sites i dont see any save options when i right-click on the flash images.

lol how can this be.. omg.

In xp, if you goto Internet Options in Control Panel...General tab...and under Browsing history, click on Settings. That will show you where your Temp files are. While there, you can view or move the files.

That only applies to Vista users.
