Decoding Cache!! How do I change where it lives?

I have a laptop with one drive partitioned into two parts: a smaller C: and a bigger D:.
I have installed Live 5 on D, but all other programs are on C:. There is only 1GB available on my C: , but about 15GB available on D:

Here's the problem: I installed Live on D:, and all my MP3s are on D:. But Live STILL puts the .wav files that are created when MP3 files are imported to a set in a directory called:

C:\Documents and Settings\Tomas Nielsen\Application Data\Ableton\Live Recordings\Decoding Cache

This only lets me add about 10 tracks before the Decoding Cache is full.
I've tried to make folder in D: with a shorcut to it from within \Live Recordings\, but Live just makes a new Decoding Cache folder.

How can i get Live to put the .wav files on D: and not C:?
(sorry if i'm a bit long-winded)
Thanks,
Tomas

options -> preferences -> defaults -> temporary folder

I have no idea how I missed that.

Its in the Audio Recordings section of the preferences. I didn't think that was where the setting for mp3 conversion would be.

Thank you very much Stinky!
