The data of internet isn't on YOUR computer. It is saved on server farms (tons of servers together). Those servers have a lot of storing space.

For instance all the mails of your Yahoo Mail account aren't store on your computer. You only use a web browser (like internet explorer) to look at the data on the Yahoo Server. Those access are protected so you're the only one that can access your data.

If you have done something bad or illigal online here is the good news, you can erase it so that no ordinary person can access it. Bad news, no matter how many times you erase it, the police can access it. You see, everything is kept on your hard drive, it is magnetically written into a disk, where a needle is dragged along that disk to read/write on that disk. Now, when you put something in your Recycle Bin, and delete it, the data dosent go anywhere, all the computer does is just "Marks" or rewrites that data as "Free", or "availible for use", so that when the computer needs room for more data, it can just write over that data. Now, depending on how badly these people wanted to catch you, you they could use a microscope to retrive data and bust you. But that takes them a while and they hardly eveer do that.
Anyway here is where they are stored
Temporary files
C:\Documents and Settings\\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\
and
C:\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\
Hope this helps!

Data from the internet is kept on a server that hosts the site. All the information that you viewed is stored in a temporary internet folder on your computer. Everything on your computer is stored on your hard drive.

On huge computers known as servers.. they run 24/7 (24 hours a day, seven days a week) throughout the year except for some minor downtime.. but they are usually running 99.99% of the time
