"Discovering
Hidden Images"
Every time you view a web page, the images on that page are downloaded
to your computer. This happens automatically. The
images are stored in a special group of folders. You can go in there and
look at all the pictures!
If you have kids, or want to check up on what someone has been viewing
on the Net, this is the place to do it. Be warned... if others have
access to your computer, there's no telling what you'll find!
To view the images stored on your computer from Web pages, do this:
1. Double Click the My Computer icon to open it.
2. Double click the C: drive.
3. Open the Windows folder.
4. Open the Temporary Internet Files folder.
Inside, you'll find a lot of stuff. Images will be there, and should
have the icon of whatever image editor you have installed on your
computer. If you don't have an image editor, the icon may look like a
blue "e" or Netscape's ship's wheel icon. Double click the
image file, and will open in your image editor, or in your browser,
depending on the software installed on your computer.
Also, check the History folder in the Windows folder. It will also
reveal a lot of information.
This is just a glimpse into the bowels of your computer. A lot of stuff
is stored there. If you want to delete the stuff you find in the
Temporary Internet Files folder, just highlight the item, and hit the
Delete key. Or highlight one item, and press Ctrl and A keys at the same
time. (Ctrl+A). This will select all of the files... then hit the Delete
key.
There are many ways to accomplish this task. This is only one.
If you know of a faster way to delete files, use it.
