Save yourself some headaches - use the Wscript.Shell's SpecialFolders collection to grab a different CSIDL - do not use the Internet cache address. It's easier to use, less subject to restriction, and is less OS version sensitive. Use the user-assigned TEMP folder - that's what it's there for, or build yourself a working directory beneath your application directory.
