When I click the FireFox icon, nothing happens. It looks like it is starting to load but then doesn't. It appears the internet cache is not getting cleared. How do I clear this to get FireFox to execute?

When the above happens, I try to run CCleaner and it tells me I need to close FireFox before it will clean the files, but it is not running? It just shows internet cache file is there at 0kb.
