It depends on what browser you use.

Firefox saves cache to /home/knoppix/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxxxxx.default/Cache where "xxxxxxxx" is some random characters.
Cookies seems to be saved to /home/knoppix/.mozilla/firefox/xxxxxxxx.default/cookies.txt where "xxxxxxxx" is some random characters.

I'm not sure where Konqueror saves them, likely somewhere below /home/knoppix/.kde

Note that directories (and files) which starts with a dot (like .mozilla and .kde) are "hidden" in Linux.
To see them in Konqueror, select View->Show Hidden Files
