Firefox Cache Viewer
The cache viewer extension for firefox might be a nice add-on for some users out there. One way to look at the cache is to enter about:cache in your address bar and hit enter. This display is unfortunately not very practicable and the information displayed are scarce. The cache on the hard drive is even worse, all files are obfuscated and you can only guess what this file is about by looking at the file size and type.
Cache Viewer displays more information about the files cached and even previews them in a small window. Let us say you viewed some nice flash animations or listened to several mp3 files on some websites. ItÂ’s pretty time consuming to find out which files you need, unless you would be using cache viewer. You can sort all files in the cache by size (and other parameters) and flip through them until you find the ones that you want.
