Temporary internet files get cleaned out when I do a drive clean, usually once a week, or at most once a fortnight, so I guess I would mean cookies, and possibly thumbnail cache

cache is on the ram -the system memory, it gets cleaned up everytime u re-start the computer, if cookies, then u can view it with windows explorer path such as C:\Documents and Settings\"Username"\Cookies\
it'll show u all the cookies and then u can be selective from there

cache is actually in the processor (level 1) or on the motherboard (level 2)
The term is also used to refer to a program's cache which would be on the hdd.
just felt like being a picky barstard

There's always someone who has to go and make a person feel inferior.
