Vortex, what browser are you using?
One annoying thing is browsers rename all the graphics files in the cache.
I'm wondering if it's because I clear private data whenever I exit (work computer)
I think this will wipe out your cache when you exit.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

One way to start would be to search for a file name of *.jpg. You'll get a lot of results, obviously, but you may recognize a name pretty quickly.

Vortex, if you're on a PC it might show up in "recent documents" (under the Start menu).

Could you copy some other random file the same way and see where it saves files by default?
Firefox will show downloaded files by using the "Tools->Downloads" menu command. You can right click on the downloaded item and select "Open Containing Folder" to open the location where the file is saved. I'm not sure if this will be cleared with the private data, I'm guessing probably.

It's been a while, so it's not there.

I have a crapload of JPGs, and I know that this file has some random name.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
What if you searched for *.jpg and then sorted the results by date?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Or search and then display the results as thumbnails.

I tried that, i can't find it. Maybe it was a freaking .tif or something. ARGH. Okay, more annoying than problematic. Thanks for the suggestions.

On my work XP machine, Mozilla's graphics cache is here:
C:\Documents and Settings\tomsusername\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\default.m13\Cache
The files are all without any extension. If I open them with Mozilla I can see the images.
