Many thanks all,

Using Firefox, found them in 
/home/username/.mozilla/firefox/8jafn4gd3.default/Cache
When paused they keep coming, have found the only way to stop them is to 
close the site
or open another video.

As was stated dialup users are really getting squeezed out now. Had 
satellite, now living in luxury
with 3g mobile.

Thanks again all.
Take care
