   This is only for the Temporary Internet Files and only on older =
versions of Windows.  For everything else you see the physical view.

   No idea why you have 1.6GB of stuff.  Look.  If you have a very large =
disk and a very large Internet cache size it can build up.  The local =
temp file directory might have a bunch of stuff if there is an =
application that isn't good at deleting the temp files it creates.

         That's particularly strange since cookies are not stored in =
