Did you set that directory to be your cache directory?

look at about:config for:
browser.cache.disk.parent_directory

It sounds like you are looking at a non-cache temp directory. Cache doesn't tell
the rest of the browser what to do w/ all their files.

Yes, to this directory points the default user environment variable %TEMP% on
W2K/WXP. I think the reporter mixed something up here.

No response => Could IMO be resolved as INVALID.
