Or does it even matter? Yes, this is normal. The "Local Settings" path is for files that shouldn't be synchronised as part of a (Windows Domain) roaming profile. You'll probably see other cache files in there too.

Or does it even matter? Normally the cache is in the same directory as the profile as far as I know. But it doesn't hurt if it's elsewhere. Why you have the situation you describe, I don't know. Did you have f.e. FireFox installed some time?
