How / Where to save Quicktime files? (Resident Evil trailer) edit: thanks, WildDreamer!!!

It seems that they have figured out a way to cache Quicktime movies someplace other than my hard drive.

I used to be able to go to my temporary internet folder and copy the downloaded file and paste it to a different folder.

Now, the file is not even created, it seeems.

The Resident Evil trailer kicks major ass and I WANT IT on my hard drive. Any help?

Oh--and I know that the movie is not streaming, because after it finishes downloading, I can go forward, back and play at will.

I should be able to find this file somewhere, unless they are caching it to memory, right?

Saw that the temp .mov file is only about 2k. Couldn't find any other sort of cache file on disk, so it might just go into RAM if there is room for it. Anyhoo, here is the path to the hi-res version:

holy freakin crap is that site ever fast! I always get ~500KB/s (kilobytes, not kilobits) from them! :Q
 
look at the page source and find the url for the .mov file, and then download it.

it's worked for me before (at other sites at least, never tried it @ apple...)
