User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 Firefox by default stores its cache in the ROAMING rather than the non-roaming part of a user profile under WinXP. i.e. "%UserProfile%\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\thtj17nl.default\Cache" rather than ""% UserProfile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\thtj17nl.default\Cache" There are two issues with this incorrect configuration: 1) If a Group Policy is in place to limit the profile size, then the user is unable to log off as the profile grows beyond the administratively configured size (maximum 30Meg) 2) Transient data such as cache data should NOT roam with an NT profile - see the Microsoft Logo Guidlines on msdn.microsoft.com for more information. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set up a roaming user profile (so that user-owned files get copied to a server share at logout) 2. Set a profile size limit using Group Policy (the maximum size is 30Meg) 3. Browse the web until the Windows XP profile quota warning kicks in (ProQuota.exe) 4. Try to log off Actual Results: Unable to log off because the roaming profile is too big Expected Results: It should have stored its cache in a user-owned folder that does NOT roam with the user profile. Specifically, anywhere under %UserProfile%\Local Settings\ does not get saved back to a network share when the user logs out. This issue effectively precludes the use of Firefox in any managed corporate environment.
