Webmail Forensic Path In Browser

Internet Explorer

Since Internet Explorer (IE) is installed by default on most Windows installations, it’s likely the most commonly used and should always be searched when looking for webmail—or any browsing artifacts for that matter. Depending on the version of Windows and IE installed, the evidence will be stored in different locations. The locations are listed below:
  • WinXP – %root%/Documents and Settings/%userprofile%/Local Settings/Temporary Internet Files/Content.IE5
  • Win Vista/7 – %root%/Users/%userprofile%/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows/Temporary Internet Files/Content.IE5
  • Win Vista/7 – %root%/Users/%userprofile%/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows/Temporary Internet
  • Files/Low/Content.IE5
  • Win8/IE10 – %root%/Users/%userprofile%/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Windows/History
Note: Internet Explorer 10 is available on Windows 7 as well. If IE9 was installed and then upgraded to IE10, there will be two sources of evidence (the index.dat file from IE9 and the database within the webcache folder for IE10).

Mozilla Firefox

Firefox is a very popular browser and also stores its cache data in various locations based on the operating system installed. It’s installed as the default browser on many Linux distributions and is available for MacOS-X as well.
  • WinXP – %root%/Documents and Settings/%userprofile%/Local Settings/Application Data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/*.default/Cache
  • Win7/8 – %root%/Users/%userprofile%/AppData/Local/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/*.default/Cache
  • Linux – /home/%userprofile%/.mozilla/firefox/$PROFILE.default/Cache
  • MacOS-X – /Users/%userprofile%/Library/Caches/Firefox/Profiles/$PROFILE.default/Cache/

Google Chrome

Google Chrome is also one of the top 3 browsers used today. It is available for Windows, Linux, and MacOS-X. Google also makes the Chromium open source project available to Linux users and runs very similar to the regular Chrome package with some minor differences i.
  • WinXP – %root%/Documents and Settings/%userprofile%/Local Settings/Application Data/Google/Chrome/User Data/Default/Cache
  • Win7/8 – %root%/Users/%userprofile%/AppData/Local/Google/Chrome/User Data/Default/Cache
  • Linux – /home/%userprofile%/.config/google-chrome/Default/Application Cache/Cache/
  • MacOS-X – /Users/%userprofile%/Caches/Google/Chrome/Default/Cache/
