"GETTING FREE RING TONES FROM PAID RING TONE SITES

A little known fact is that if you see it or hear it through your browser then it has been downloaded to your computer! All you have to do is search your temp files and copy it from there. Sometimes tones are downloaded as *.wma, *.mp3 and if you are lucky *.mid. Most of the time tones are downloaded with an alias so let's say that you play a tone from any site and the name of the tone is called "Happy Birthday" it might show up in the temp files as "11102334.wma" Just copy and change the name. You may have to convert from one file format to another. But who wants to pay for something you can have for free. Best of all this is 100% legal." (http://www.earthuser.com/8900/)

The guy says here that if it plays on your browser then it has been downloaded to the computer. I went into my temp internet files which should be in C:\Documents and Settings\Bruce\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files
I don't see any .mid .wma or .mp3 files there. Where exactly does he mean to look in? Has anyone done this?

Go to Tools...Internet Options... On the General Tab look for the Settings... button in the Temporary Internet Files section then click on view files, they are all in there.

Have Fun

I just get them from tagtag.com and mail them to my phone. Seems a lot easier

Yeah I know where my Temp files are but when I look inside it, I don't see any .mid, .mp3, or any sound files in there. I just see other things...

Delete the files from the first section then play the file again. It will be there.
