[Fasterfox] fasterfox file shred question

Hi Fred,

Excellent question.

Fasterfox uses Firefox's built in caching mechanism.  Therefore when you
clear Firefox's cache, you are also clearing anything that may have been
prefetched by Fasterfox.  

A neat tip to view your cache is to type "about:cache" in the URL bar and
click the Disk Cache.  If that shows no files, then you are clean :)

Regards,
Tony

Hi Tony, This question may have already been asked or may not pertain,
but...

For privacy reasons, using Cyberscrub, I shred all files which note where
I've been or what I've been browsing.

Are there reasons for me not to use FasterFox?  Or, are there files I should
add to my shred list?

Best regards,

Fred
