My C: drive is a partition that is setup to hold only program data and is limited in space. Since I am loading more programs, I am running out of space. I had Internet Explorer 6 set up to use my D: drive for temp files. How do I do this in Firefox 3.6.13?

If you want to relocate the temp folder as well then you can change the environment variables %TMP% and %TEMP% that define the location of the TEMP folder.

Control Panel > System > Advanced > Environment Variables
