Location of Cache Directory?

I know you can empty the Cache by clicking Edit/Empty Cache, but does anyone know where the actual cache directory is located? I've looked for it under the Windows directory and also Program Files/Safari and can not find it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Look in

c:\Document and Settings\Carl\Application Data\Apple Computer\Safari

and

c:\Document and Settings\Carl\Local Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\Safari

Replace Carl with your user name.


Mircosoft Internet Explorer allows you to change cache size and location from Tools, Internet Options, Settings. My MSIE cache size is 128mb and I moved it to another hard drive (I have two) in an attempt to increase performance.

I cannot find any settings in Safari to change cache size and cache location.

Regards,
Carl
