IN ORDER TO WATCH VIDEOS A LARGE AMOUNT OF MEMORY IS REQUIRED. BUT THE DRIVE IN WHICH FIREFOX IS INSTALLED HAS MORE NUMBER OF PROGRAM FILES. IS THERE ANY WAY TO CHANGE THE LOCATION OF THE TEMPORARY FILES THAT GET ACCUMULATED DURING BROWSING?

You probably need to change the value of the %temp% and %tmp% environment variables in: 

Control Panel > System > Advanced > Environment variables

You can set the location of the Firefox cache by setting a pref to that location.
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.cache.disk.parent_directory

To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.
