I'm running Netscape 4.7 under SuSE 6.2. I discovered that the ~/.netscape/cache directory contained over 50MB of cache files, even though the disk cache size under Edit / Preferences/ Advanced / Cache was set at 5000 KB. Moreover, pressing the Clear Disk Cache button didn't clear out the contents of that directory. I manually deleted all the files within the directory (though not the directory itself) with no ill effects so far -- except that Netscape seems to load faster.
Is there a way to prevent that cache from getting so big, or to clear it from within Netscape?
I posted the same basic thing last month-( I've upgraded to 4.71 will see if that helps but for now rm -rf * is my friend.
