The site, the pages and the pictures are typically stored in a cache file which are in the temp directories. The bigger the cache file, the longer they are stored there. The names and things get scrambled up, but someone can see the pictures.

yes all the pages and pictures you surf are locally store in cache on your hard drive.

The number of days they are stored for however depends on your settings in the browser.

You could however delete all these temporary files when ever you want
