Where are the Temporary Internet Files Folders gone?

Recently, I found an interesting animation on an html page. Since I could
not find by Internet search, any easy method of saving the animation, I
thought of the old - probably not recompensed - method of searching for the
animation file in the Temporary Internet Files Folders and then saving it.
But those Folders are no more seen in my Windows XP. Is there anywhere an
option not to store or delete these files and could I have unwittingly
selected the option to delete these folders even before they are created?

Or has it got anything to do with my selection of the ActiveX control and
Java Options which I was required to select in order to view Flash Video
music files in FLV format from You Tube?

If neither of these concerns is valid, how do I restore the Temporary
Internet Files presence in my Windows XP?

By the way, could anyone suggest a method of capturing an animation from an
html page? Thanks.

================================
I'm guessing you mean an animated .gif?
Did you try...Right Click / Save Picture As?

Maybe the Temporary Internet Files folder
is hidden. Try opening a folder and go to...
....Tools / Folder Options / View tab...
Under "Hidden Files and Folders" tick...
"Show hidden files and folders" / Apply / OK.

In Win XP the Temporary Internet Files
folder should be found at:

C:\Documents and Settings\>user name<\
Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files

You have complicated the subject, so to simplify, is it a YouTube clip
you wish to capture?
If so, forget temp folders, go here:

I mentioned the use of YouTube only because it required changes in
the ActiveX controls. The animation of which I have not been able to
find the file extension (ani or gif) by right clicking on it, is in
fact a gmail web-page.

Is the gmail webpage a guarded secret doomed to forever remain
a mystery, or is there another reason why you won't post a link?

It is a humorous e-mail about checking your eyesight: two GIFs of
multi-coloured dots, asking if you see the dots moving and the third is a
naughty animation showing a bevy of young girls cycling in short shorts,
swivelling their butts. The optician's question is "do you see any movement?
If not, dial 911". Since it is addressed to my gmail account, no one can
access it and I cannot reproduce it for anyone else to see it
I am searching, if the joke is posted on the NET anywhere.

=============================
Why not forward the message to your
Outlook Express e-mail account and
save the attachments to your hard drive.

You've identified it as a a GIF, so it will be an attachment.
In gmail there will be the usual paperclip icon to indicate an
attachment, and beside the paperclip icon will be two options:
Download or View.
If the GIF auto plays and no option to download,
then select to forward the email but don't send and save to drafts
then open drafts folder, open the email and the download option
will be in that email.

If the animation autoplays when email opened, then security level
must be too low. I doubt that to be the case with gmail.
You must have clicked on something to get it to play.
If it is an attachment then do as above and create an email to
forward but save to drafts, in that draft will be the download option.
If it is a shortened link such as an underlined "click_here" or similar
then it is opening a link to a web page, post that webpages URL.

Thanks for the help given by all of you. The problem appears to have been
solved by using the instructions from
www.jasonreina.com/ie7advancedoptions.htm

on using the Advanced Option in Internet Explorer 7 which I am using.

I have been able to forward the gmail message to my OE7 and save the
graphics and aniGIF to my hard disk.
