is there any way to manually extend the size of the temp.
internet file cache, and offline webpage cache? the
internet is not always accessible, so i like to download a
lot of webpages, but when i reach a certian amount of
files on my computer i can nolonger keep newly downloaded
cached files. i have plenty of storage space on my
computer, but for some reason my temp. internet files and
offline webpages will not go over a certian size. some
times when im syncing my offline webpages im prompted to
extend the size of the cache, is there anyway (like
through a registery key) to set those values manually, or
make them unlimited? thanks.

Start | Run | Type: inetcpl.cpl | OK |
General tab | Settings button | Amount of disk space to use

[[Specifies how much disk space to use for the Temporary Internet Files
folder.
When you view a new page on the Web, Internet Explorer temporarily stores it
(and some of its contents, such as graphics files) on your hard disk. This
increases the speed at which previously viewed pages are displayed.
The more disk space you allot to the folder, the more pages Internet
Explorer can store on your hard disk. If you are low on disk space, you
might want to set this option to a lower percentage.]]
