C Cleaner is great, but I would occasionally like to view what is held within the internet temp cache in Firefox, prior to deletion. What folder and where do I find it, please? and thanks. (using XP Pro)

You aren't going to find anything of much use in the Firefox cache folder because it doesn't create typical file extensions like image.gif, audio.mp3, video.avi, etc.

Anyways here's what you wanted to know:

Windows XP:

In Windows Explorer go to this location:
C:\Documents and Settings\Your Windows User Profile Name\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\Randomly Created Firefox Profile Name\Cache

Via Command Prompt:
dir /s "%userprofile%\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles"
Complexity of incoherent design.
