upon typing the command it points to the temp directory in the user profile
in local settings under the documents and settings folder,
the OS is 2K but I am seeing this happen on a lot of different pc's running
both 2k an XP.
This seems to happen even though the settings in internet options point back
the temp internet files folder under local settings.
If I delete the folders in the Temp direcorty as soon as I launch IE it
recreates them in the temp folder even though the settings are not set to

Hi Blacklab,

More information needed:

1/ What Operating System? (2000 or XP?)
2/ Is the Temp folder relocated somewhere automatically (or the Cookies
folder)
3/ Type %temp% in RUN and which location does it point to?

Can someone explain why these folders keep leaving the documents  and
settings folder and ending up in the temp directory?
Please note this happens to the same user
