Take a look at your Amount of disk space to use setting for Temporary
Internet Files. Maybe that has been changed to a lower setting.

I don't want to keep them I just want to know why are they now
disappearing each day when they always remained there before & I had to
delete them. Also I want to know that whatever is causing them to
disappear each day is not going to cause another problem of some kind.

Lesley,
Most folks want to know how to get rid of their Temporary Internet
Files. If the folders are too full that can cause problems.
Here are a few problems that may be caused by Temporary Internet Files
that are too full....
Internet Explorer Saves Images As Bitmaps (.bmp Files)
The Disk Cleanup Tool Stops Responding
Error Message When You Open Photo: "The Page Cannot Be Displayed"
OL2000: Internet Free/Busy Information Not Updated
Money: Error Message: Money Is Unable to Verify Your Online Sign In
OLEXP: Sent Web Page Is the Cached Version of the Web Page Not the Most
Current Version of the Web Page
Outlook Express message appears blank and has an ATT000XX.txt or an
ATT000XX.htm attachment
Why do you want to keep yours?

Yes I have Disk Cleanup...I had a look at it but wouldn't be game
enough to delete any of the thing just in case I got rid of something
really important, would it help if I used System Restore????

Lesley,
How about Disk Cleanup?
It is found on the Start Menu under Accessories\System Tools
Paste this in Start | Run and click OK...
cleanmgr
Does that look familiar?
[[You can use Disk Cleanup to free up space on your hard disk by
removing temporary Internet files, removing installed components and
programs that you no longer use, and emptying the Recycle Bin.]]

I am running Windows XP with Service Pack 2 & I have Free
"Adaware" & "AVG Antivirus" I am in the habit of emptying
my Temp. Internet Files every day or so & I can usually scroll for
ages from top to bottom as there are that many files in the folder
but the last week or so every day when I look there are only a few
files in the folder from the current day ( other than cookies) &
I usually
visit the same sites daily...I was wondering if someone could give
me a reason why this has happened, where are all the files going
& why, I haven't ticked
"Empty TIF when Browser is closed "
