73377 - even when deactivated disk caching still occurs

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 73380

(Core :: Networking: Cache, defect)

Description

[gsa]

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.76 (Macintosh; U; PPC)
BuildID:    2001032418

instead of connecting to a network host mozilla checks the disk cache first, 
since i don't want caching and deleted the cache folder, but mozilla takes it 
upon itself to recreate the "NewCache" folder and writes cache files to disk 
anyway.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. delete "NewCache" folder
2. boot Mozilla
3. check Mozilla folder, "NewCache" folder will reappear and cache files will be 
inside

Actual Results:  caching resumed even though i turned off all caching

Expected Results:  not recreated caching at all since i deactivated caching

nsDiskCacheDevice::FindEntry(nsCString*)

before making a network connection the browser checks disk cache. this is not 
very friendly. mozilla is a network application not a disk utility
