From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.0rc3) Gecko/20020523 BuildID: 2002052306 When I go to Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced to clear the Disk Cache and click Clear Disk Cache, not all the cache is cleared, there's still 4, if not more, files from the cache left over that hadn't been cleared from the disk memory.... The files left over are always "_CACHE_001_", "_CACHE_002_", "_CACHE_003_", and "_CACHE_MAP_". a few other files tend to remain from parts of webpages that were closed before the disk cache was cleared. The more webpages one goes to, the more cache that remain undeleted... Clearing the Memory Cache never deleted these files and sometimes, deleting them manually while the browser was open gave shared violation errors, if not to all, then some... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Go to a few web pages so that disk cache gets collected. 2.Leave all webpages, open a new browser window or tab and close the old ones that were used to view pages. 3.Go to Edit -> Preferences -> Advanced to clear the Disk Cache and click Clear Disk Cache 4.Check the the disk cache folder for left over files 5.Try to delete left over files manually with the browser open 6.Close browser, delete what's left in the disk cache folder manually, re-open browser and start over. Actual Results: There were files left over in the disk cache Expected Results: Deleted all of the disk cache
