Content.IE5 Folder

Windows XP Home...
In Windows, opening C:\Documents and settings\UserName\Local Settings I do not see the
folder Temporary Internet Files. However Default User does contain that folder and the
Content.ie5 folder as well.

Using Command I can access c:\documents and settings\username\local settings\
temporary internet files\content.it5

Since IE Internet Options does not always clean up all temp files, I like to access that folder
directly to clean it out.

I did notice that the Content.ie5 folder names under Default User and UserName are not
the same. In File View, I do have hidden and system files enabled to display.

I am the Administrator (and only user). On another machine (XP Pro) I can
access the
content.ie5 folder and clean it out without having to go to CMD. There, I
am also the
Administrator and only user. Could this be a difference with XP Home?
