The shell folder paths all point to where they should, the folders are in
their correct place under user profile, I should mention I see this issue a
lot on other peoples pc's just not sure what is causing it

Weird! Checked the Shell folder paths in the registry? Also, notice if the
cookies and TIF are created with your user profile also (?)

Actually IE keeps recreating the temp int files, cookies, and history in the
Temp directory even after deletion the minute I open IE back up it recreates
them
to make this more frustrating any cookies that I actually want keep getting
lost
Not sure where to go from here any ideas?

Same situtation here. (ZoneAlarm stores some TMP files there, in my system).
But, I don't see any IE related TMP files in that area.Do you see any?

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
their

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
