I followed instructions to clear my cache. I find in program files/netscape/users 2 user files, default and one with my name. Each of those folders have a cache file that doesn't clear when I follow the instructions. There are old items in those cache folders going back 6 or 7 years. Is it safe to just delete the files but keep the folder? Or maybe these are just old leftovers from Netscape Communicator and I should blow the entire netscape folder in program files away?

Thanks

George

Firefox does not use the netscape folders, they will be from Netscape Communicator.

To find the location of your cache, type about:cache into the location bar and press enter.
