Emptying the cache
I've started having problems with using the online bill paying feature
of my bank. I asked them about it, and they told me that the first
thing I should do is clear the cache. They included instructions for
Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, and AOL -- but not Firefox.
Firefox's help tells me how to change cache settings, but that's it.
How do you clear the cache in Firefox? Tools...Options has an button to
clear 'private data.' What is that?

Thanks. I never would have thought to look on the 'network' tab.

Whoops, sorry, I didn't include "network," it auto opened to that tab
where it was prior.

And occasionally the cache directory of Folder actually get corrupted.
Locate the Cache Directory (Folder) in the FF Profile deep six to Trash
(trash Bin) and then empty. Open FF and it rebuild it automatically
