the current user, and I don't see it in the browser's cache folder.
Where
is it?

maybe it's not stored locally, but just streamed? when embedding QT
in a web page, there is attribute cache=TRUE|FALSE that specifies if the
movie should be cached in the browser cache. maybe it's always turned
off for QT in shockwave?

I did some research and found out, that quicktime's cache folder is located at: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Lokal Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\QuickTime\downloads\
on the PC, or something corresponding on the mac.
For all loaded movs there is a corresponding file with the ending *.qtch in some sub folder of this cache folder. For QT version 6.5 or older, those qtch files could simply be renamed to their original ending, e.g. *.mov, to restore the original file. since QT 7, those qtch files are a couple of bytes smaller than the original file because their QT header is somehow encrypted, so there is no simple way to play them or restore the original file.

but sniffing the URL of the original file and download it directly is of course still possible.
