Firefox Cache

[Guest Shane0500]

Hello,

 

I have a rather annoying occurance of my Firefox cache files vanishing! I run WinXP Media Center, avast! for antivirus, Windows firewall on, and i use ccleaner often, but i never check the "internet cache" box, as i have dial up internet, the pages load quite slowly, which is why i love the cache so much. Its very annoying.

 

My firefox is set to clean on its own when it is closed, but i have it set not to remember history, but to load images automatically. I also have firefox set to accept cookies from sites until they expire. 1 last thing is, i have 100MB for cache space in firefox options.

 

Any help would be nice!

this to me tells me your firefox is clearing your cache

 

and none of

 

but i have it set not to remember history, but to load images automatically. I also have firefox set to accept cookies from sites until they expire. 1 last thing is, i have 100MB for cache space in firefox options.

 

would have any effect on whether the cache is cleaned at exit

1. Go into Firefox's 'Tools->Options', then click 'Privacy'. All the stuff to keep your cache is located in there that you'd need to untick to keep.

2. Go into 'Tools->Options', then click 'Advanced', and then click Network. Set an Offline storage that will best work for you.

Also you may want to configure 'Tools->Clear Recent History'

 

Also see this Firefox help file for offline storage.
