The TIF folder is specified in IE's options.

Okay, it's showing Documents and Setting/User/Local Settings/Temporary
Internet Files just like in XP. But when I go to Local Settings in
Explorer it's not there. I have folder options on Local Settings set to
show hidden folders.

No the default "tif" folder would be in My Pictures usally. The default
Internet Tem,porary Files are at:
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files
and
C:\Documents and Settings\NetworkService\Local Settings\Temporary Internet
Files
and
C:\Documents and Settings\LocalService\Local Settings\Temporary Internet
Files
and
C:\Documents and Settings\Default User\Local Settings\Temporary Internet
Files
and
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temporary Internet
Files
and
under any other users that may have been created on the machine.

TIF stands for Tagged Image Format and is a type of image same as JPG, JPEG,
BMP, etc. are.

See VanguardLH's answer, but let me add the following:

1. You switched from XP *Home* (there is no such thing as *plain* XP)
to XP Professional,

2. May I ask why you did this? Are you aware that XP Home and
Professional are identical except that Professional includes a few
features (mostly related to security and networking) missing from
Home? Most home users don't need and would never use these extra
features and will see no benefits by upgrading.

For details go to

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/whichxp.asp

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/h.../choosing2.asp

Also note another point, not included in any of the above:
Professional allows ten concurrent network connections, and Home only
five.

HTH,

You are ignoring the context on purpose. TIF can obviously mean other
things:

No, I was commenting on the obvious context it was used in/about. lol, do
you mean to say you actually went and looked uip what other things it could
possibly stand for?! In the "context" it was an improper reference that
was incorrect; no big deal, but worth mentioning IMO. In your case, you're
just playing cactus.

If the words, "Temporary Internet Folder", weren't in the subject line of
every post/response - I would agree with your 'context' comment. Seeing as
the words, "Temporary Internet Folder", is in the subject of each response
and even in the *quoted* message body of the original posting, the 'context'
was spelled out from the beginning. :-)

Essentially - you walked into a room that had a big banner hanging saying,
"Temporary Internet Files" and heard someone say the words out loud,
"Temporary Internet Files" and someone respond with "TIF Folder" and you
decided to make a joke/comment about the double-use of the final letter/word
(TIF Folder, if expanded, would be (staying within the context of this
conversation) Temporary Internet Folder Folder) ... At least that is what I
can see. ;-)

The context is correct - the usage is something I have seen in other things
when acronyms start being used... Usually the repeat of the last word/words
of the acronym because the person just doesn't think it 'sounds right' to
just say the acronym - or it is not descriptive enough.
