I was hoping to see an answer to this post as I don't
really understand what IE is doing. Your "real"
cookies are located at C:\WINDOWS\Cookies. The
"cookies" in temp. internet files seem to be pointers
or commands to those cookies in C:\WINDOWS\Cookies.
All of the subfolders are backups or dynamic
duplicates of some sort. Why? Microsoft wouldn't do
something just to make it confusing would they?
