Firefox: Where is the cache?
I want to save a .swf (flash) file that i saw on the net, but i cant find where Firefox saves the cache and how i can retreive it.
Ideas?

Dunno where Firefox place the files... can search later. But if you go to the site with the flash content probably you can search the HTML source and find the links to *.swf files or make save of the page on some local dir and search for flash files in the directory with the files that belong to the saved web page.
*A bit later* ... no way to open it so easy. Firefox's cache is seemly on
[local disk]/Documents and Settings/[name of windows profile]/Application data/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/[your firefox profile]/Cache/
and consist of many segment files but not explicit of the files you need.

Appendix: Some sites does the link spoofing, generating the page wholy or partially via javascript. In that case try to save the web page localy (Firefox, I mean, for the other I am not sure) and search the saved source for *.swf links - in most of cases, that is the way to unfurl the spoofed HTML source.
