Anyone know where Firefox stores the temporary files? I am curious because I uses "EasyCleaner" to keep the unwanted files cleaned up and it (understandably) does not seem to find any left over trash from Firefox - perhaps there is none.

I guess I am spoiled. After years of IE, I miss spending hours cleaning up after IE.

With Firefox cookies are stored in a single text file rather than separate files like in IE.Everything with Firefox is stored per user, and located here(depending on your OS)

This is an example with XP:

C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\5wcj6no1.default

NOTE: The "Application Data" Directory is hidden in Windows by Default.
