retrieving files from browser cache

I accidentally deleted a PDF file from both my web server and my development machine. I want to check my browser's cache to see if there's a copy of it in there. Where do I look? I use both Firefox and Internet Explorer, so I'd like to search both of their caches.

The PDF seems to not be in the web broswer cache. I think you are looking in the caches because you read your PDF with a PDF reader included in your web broswer. In Linux there exist a directory cache for acroread (Adobe). This should be the same for Windows.

Nirsoft has free cache viewers for Firefox and for Internet Explorer.

BTW, this would be a good time to think about using version control for your work ;-)
