Temporary Internet Folder - still can't view contents

Has anyone come up with the solution to viewing the full content
of the Temporary Internet folder?

I've Googled for an answer, checked different forums and tried
every suggestion out there but still can't access the 'hidden' data
files showing the contents of webpages that have been visited..

I use Vista Ultimate X64 as my OS..

I would like to at least have the cookies displayed in TIF so
I can go through the list and del the Ad cookies..

I understand Microsoft (in their ultimate wisdom) decided to
'hide' the data for security reasons. Doesn't make sense to this
old boy and I sure wish they would structure it as they did in
WinXP..

Hope someone can help me... TIA

Make sure you enable hidden files in Folder options, and un-tick hide
protected OS
Stuff.

C:\Users\Your User Name\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet
Files

For cookies, go to User/<your count>/Appdata/Roaming/Microsoft/windows/cookies.
Make sure protected system files are unhidden.
