I am running Windows Vista Home Premium and IE7.0.6001.1800
I like to watch youtube and with IE6 I was able to go to the cache and save
some of the funnier clips.
I cannot find the cache in IE7 so I either need help finding the cache or I
want to be able to go back to IE6 if possible.
Help!
Thank you for any ideas.
John

Download Firefox and then add Download Helper to it and you can download
You Tube videos to your heart's content. You will also have to download
VLC media player to view them.

No, it's not possible to replace Vista's IE7 with IE6. That's the sort
of OS downgrade that's never supported.

On IE7, go to Tools/Internet Options. On the General tab, click Settings in
the browsing history section, then click View Files on that dialog, sort the
files by Last Accessed, and look for the file you're after.

The Op is asking about Internet Explorer. We don't need pay shrills here, as
in thanks but no thanks.

I suspect you meant "shills" but in any case, why don't you just kiss my
ass?

No, I really did mean shrill - as in a useless annoying noise. Um, how much
$$ is Mozilla paying?

As this is a VISTA group and NOT an IE group, then Alias's solution is
perfectly OK. Many people run FF on Vista....
Just be a LITTLE more tolerant of possible non-MS solutions...
