What is the new structure of the "cache"? I have a custom utility that until today, would access the _CACHE_. Now it does not work.

The CACHE was a folder at: C:\Documents and Settings\Marian\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\wvi348el.default\.....

Now, the new version changed that to a string of single-character folders, plus a set of _CACHE_... documents. What is the significance and criteria for the content of each of these new items?

I will need to adjust my access app, to deal with this change.
