How do I get .mov quicktime files?

I went to the Apple website and watched a trailer.
The trailer was definitely on my hard drive since when I went back to
the page... it wasn't downloading from new.

I tried to get a copy of the file.
But couldn't find it anywhere.
I looked in 'Temporary Internet Files'... but nothing there. : (
I'm using IE7.

I'm also using Firefox. When I watched there... it didn't download
either - I assumeit read off the same downloaded file as IE7?

Thanks.

Do a search for files created about the time of the download. Look for
*.mov (It won't have the original filename.) It might not load, if you
find it; that would be because of a protection scheme.

The file is in a hidden directory. Unhide files and folders in folder
options, and look for the file based on size and date.

Not likely.

size.

Usually, Quicktime only provides the ability to save a viewed .Mov
using the Pro version of Quicktime. You should do a web search on
the topic. There are lots of "Workarounds" and suggestions on how
to capture Quicktime content.
