You will find that for the active profile you have to add the content.ie5
bit to the address manually in the path c:\documents and
settings\username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\
It has worked this way on all the XP systems I remember seeing.
This works because Windows Explorer supports Microsoft's strategy for hiding
these directories. The tools you mentioned work with directory data at a
lower level.

Recently I have been unable to see any directories and files below
"Temporary
Internet Files". These are those directories like"content.e510" . This
occured when I was cleaning out cookies, history, temp files, etc.
Windows
Explorer can see those files directly under the Temporart Inernet Files
directory but not any of the sub-directories. Neither can Symentic Works.
Yet it will scan all directories and below. I have selected "display
hidden
files" in Explorer options. My word processor can see those files if I
attemp to select one to open.
Previously I had been able to view all files with no problem and assume
some
setting has been changed that I am unaware of.
This is Windows-XP Home Edition.
