Where Is Temporary Folder?

C

When I try to "save target as" for a Real Media file (.rm)
I cannot save it. However, I may open it and view it with
the Real Media player. However, before I can view it,
IExplorer 6.0 "opens" the file saying "Download to:
Temporary Folder." Once downloaded to this temporary
folder I can play it to my heart's content. Where may I
find this "temporary folder" on my system so that I may
save the file to a permanent location? Thanks for any
help.

You will find it at c:\windows\Temporary internet files

You should note name of file and do a start find
files .... this will list all files with the name and
direct you to its exact location

Tools | Internet Options
Click Settings in the Temporary Internet files section. There's a box there
telling you where the Temporary Internet Files are located.

Dear Frank:

That's one of my problems. My browser has been somewhat
restricted and I cannot see or change internet options. I
have done a search on the local C: drive but do not find
the file anywhere. But it must be somewhere because I can
play and replay it. Any suggestions as to where to look?
I have kind of had to work around some silly restrictions
before. . . Thanks.
