i have ffox 5.0. the path you told me unfortunately is not working...this is odd though for i can't find any different path from ffox 3.6.
Anyway, thanks for the help.

I had to uninstall the later versions of Ffox to get it to work.


I had version 6 and removed the later versions by add/remove programs

these Firefox guys are crazy.
Two versions released in a couple months...

Vrtool was tried with FF 3.6 and 4. For these use:
cache path = C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\
boat data = plugin-ServiceCaller-*.php
This is for Vista. For other versions of Windows, the cache path may change.

For FF5 I don't know :roll:

I had the same problem and found The solution here:

http://www.infohole.com/blog/computing/ ... -location/


Type about:config into the firefox navigation bar and hit enter
Find the browser.cache.disk.parent_directory, if it doesn't exist right click anywhere and select NEW, then STRING. Enter browser.cache.disk.parent_directory in the first popup box and then the location in the 2nd popup box
e.g. C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\
If the entry already existed simply right click on it and select MODIFY and enter your new directory path.
Now your firefox cache location has been changed!

Ahh¡¡ I also need to activate start a HtppFox
