Whether something gets cached or not depends on several factors, browser
related, server related and coding. IE caches in hiding folders and the
files retain their file extensions (Windows-centric), but Firefox gives
them a coded filename, e.g., 'D9C2D4D6d01' with a hex viewer, like
WinBrowse, Hexpert or Norton's Diskedit you can see the files actual
contents (either plain text for html, css and js; or binary for images
and media and other binary data)
Do not have PSP, but I think you are talking about something else. If
PSP uses Windows Explorer thumbnail generator to create the thumbs it
maybe that TIF images are not web or Windows format (GIF, JPG and MS's
BMP). Someone may have written a shell extension to add TIF to
Explorer's preview, I do not know. I do recommend IrfanViewer, a
freeware 'Swiss Army knife' image/media view and utility that has a
thumbnail feature that supports TIF plus a myriad of other formats

I have gone to the page with the free Flash Tutorials links - I'm presently
streaming the Flash movie from the site. I did Tools - page Info and it has
one line that says 'Cache Source Not Cached' which doesn't look to
hopeful. I think I'll wait for it all to reach me and then I'll use the save
as button in the info page - if I have any luck I will post again.

One fundermental point I'm sure you could clear up for me is about the
cache. I'm starting to doubt everything I thought was true. I used to think
that the various elements that make up a web page e.g. .gif's, .jpgs etc
were stored in a cache on the hard disc e.g. Temporary Internet Files folder
for IE but now I'm thinking are these things actually on my hard disc. They
all have an internet address next to them and if you double click them they
will open OK while your connected to the internet but file not found comes
up if your not connected.

What's more when I browse TIF folder with Paint
Shop Pro I don't get lots of little thumbs of all the pictures. Yet I
allocate a fair chunk of my C: drive to the TIF folder so I suppose they are
there - but it seems like they are not. Please clear this up for me - this
is beginning to be a real pain!
