User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686) Gecko/20030527 Galeon/1.3.5 Debian/1.3.5.20030615-1 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 There are at least two bugs that touch on this issue but are more expansive in scope (<a href=http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=123080>123080</a>, <a href=http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46490>46490</a>) I'm adding this report that deals only with the default location for the mozilla cache. I'm adding it as a bug (not a feature request) because this issue makes mozilla difficult to use in a windows roaming profile enterprise. To keep the windows roaming profile size down, expendable files (like cache files) should be moved to a non-roaming area. I'm aware that this can be set via a user preference but that is not sufficient for a large site. thanks for a great browser! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: this is trivial just start mozilla and the cache area begins to grow Actual Results: the cache area grew too large to be easily managed by windows roaming profile functionality. Expected Results: it should have stored the cache files in a non-roaming folder like %PROFILE_DIR%/Local Settings/...
