    with Netacape 7.0 I empty cache every day using the Edit/preferences. One day I descided to actually check the folder where those files are kept. there were over 100 files all with strange names that were mostly strings of numbers & letters. They all had various dates of creation
    Now when i went to dump the cache in the usual manner & checked that folder all of those files were still there. Any ideas on this? can I dump those strange files?

    Everything in your...\Profiles\xxxxxxxx .slt\ CACHE folder is safe to delete. Just make sure that Netscape is closed when you delete the Cache folder contents.

    As a matter of interest, I don't believe that you can manually delete ALL of the contents of the cache folder with netscape open.
    _CACHE_001_
    _CACHE_002_
    _CACHE_003_
    _CACHE_MAP_

    are not available for deletion.

    regards:
