I've tried resetting preferences in the options menus, but the problem remains. Is there a way to stop Firefox from caching so much data and using up so much hard disk space or a way to remove and restore the hard disk space that is faster than using CCleaner? Thanks for any help or suggestions. -Russell

Type about:preferences#privacy<enter> in the address bar.

The button next to History, select Use Custom Settings.

At the bottom of the page, turn on Clear History When Firefox Closes. At the far right, press the Settings button. Turn on Cache and Form And Search History.
