QUOTE Cookies are kept in special folder on your hard disk. The location of this folder depends on the version of Windows and whether or not you are using user profiles (accounts). If you have Windows Vista then the cookie folders are in these locations (note that on your PC they can be on other drive instead of drive C): C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies\ C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies\Low\ Note, that you will have to change the settings of Windows Explorer to show all kinds of files (including the protected system files) in order to access these folders. - http://www.milincorporated.com/a_cookies.html I hope that helped!! |
