In windows vista home premium I run malwarebytes often. Last time I noticed it
was checking numerous clipboardcache files. As soon as it was done, I tried
locating these files to delete them. Problem is, explorer won't list them. So is
there to cause explorer to show these files?
I've also noticed explorer refuses to show the temp internet file folders.

Control Panel
Folder Options
View tab
Tick 'show hidden...'
and
If you know what you're doing.
Untick 'Hide protected operating system files...'

Best

DIR by default won't show hidden or system files.

Try

DIR /AH
to show hidden files / folders
DIR /AS
to show system files / folders, although likely a system file is also
hidden.
