to view temp files that internet explorer ( ie ) is creating and using do this 1) file up internet exporer 2) click on Tools on top line 3) select internet Options 4) in the middle row it says Temporary Internet Files find Settings and click on that 5) click on view files 6) bingo you get a list of all the temp files internet explorer is using. NOTE: files are not listed while they are being downloaded. they are only listed after being downloaded. in the case of my 15 meg tempe.wav file it takes a while for the file to appear 7) to copy the files into another directory you can drag and drop them or move them a number of other ways you can move files in windows. 8) it looks like internet explorer places these files in C:\WINDOWS\Temporary Internet Files
