Can't see contents of Temporary Internet Files?

How come I can't see the contents of Temporary Internet Files in XYplorer [even with show hidden on]? Well, I can see some items but they're not the same as in Windows Explorer. I'm on Win7 x64. Any ideas?
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files

That location is a
shell namespace. Basically, these display a certain folder differently from the physically present files and/or folders they contain. According to a
recent post by the developer, XYplorer (unlike Windows Explorer) currently does not support shell namespaces with the exception of the Recycle Bin; general support is planned however.
@Don: Is shell namespace support something for the FAQ? (Two questions about different namespaces so far, isn't that onerous, but...)
