Where IE8 caches web page image & video files ?

[emil_lam]

Before I upgraded my IE to version 8, whenever I browse web sites, I
could grab the jpeg & gif files embedded in the web pages from my
computer under directory C:\Documents and Settings\<WINDOWS XP user
account directory>\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\. Also,
after I played a youtube video, I could grab the corresponding copy of
youtube flash file stored under the same directory. After IE 8
installed, I found the directories caching browsed internet content
disappeared. Could anyone tell me where can I get them my local PC?

Tks!

In IE8 :-

Tools menu -> Internet Options

General Tab -> click on "Settings" under "Browsing History"

Look for "Current location" near middle.

You can view the files by clicking "View files"
