i can't seem to find the LOCAL SETTINGS folder, in which the TEMPORARY
INTERNET FILES folder and another TEMP folder are located. i've tried
starting with MY COMPUTER, DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS, but not finding it.

Click to expand...

It is a hidden folder.
From Explorer,
select Tools->FolderOptions->View->Show Hidden Files & Folders

Then you can find it at:
My Computer->C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings

It's a hidden folder. To access it directly, type this in Start, Run:

%userprofile%\Local Settings
