     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.
