From: "Geo." 

I still don't understand. If I ask to see something I'm not allowed to see
then I should get a "you aren't allowed" message and if I am
allowed to see it then I should see it. Why would explorer
"obfuscate" my view of my system, what kind of reasoning would
lead to a behavior like that? This is what I don't understand.

Geo. (I wasn't really directing the question at you, I was just asking a
question that needs asking)

   This directory has a custom viewer that shows a logical view of the
Internet cache and cookies instead of the intentionally obfuscated physical
view.  It also adds information not stored with each file like the URL
cached by that file and the cache expiration time.

   In Windows Server 2003 viewing another user's cache does not display the
logical view.  In Windows 2000 I'm pretty sure it does.  I don't know about
Windows XP.

   In any event, Mike's claims were bogus though it is not clear if this is
due to his disregard for honesty or accuracy.

  Why would explorer show you someplace different from what you asked to
see?

     That's particularly strange since cookies are not stored in that
  location.  Now if you tried looking with Explorer at that location for
  another account, you would see the contents of the temporary Internet
files
  and cookies for your own account.

    I can't answer your question, but when I went looking on my box (W2K
SP2)
    I found a bunch of cookies in the Local Settings|Temporary Internet
Files
    folder of the Administrator.  That's odd because I do not log in as
    Administrator on this box.
