I keep my temporary internet files in E:\Temporary Internet Files\. My virus
check shows that I have a virus in a file with the path E:\Temporary Internet
Files\CONTENT IE5\.............\.............\. I would like to delete this
file but when I go to the folder from My Computer there are no sub folders in
E:\Temporary Interent Files\ though the folder properties says there are 9
fiolders. I have viewing of hidden files and system files enabled
Can anyone exlain how to see these invisible folders. When the virus check
runs you can see these folders being scanned but where are they. search for
Content IE5 does not give any results. Any help would be appreciated since a
nearly 70 I am begnnng to think senility is setting in.
