Clearing the Internet cache from Firefox 2 is often necessary to solve certain web page and browser problems that sometimes occur.
The Internet cache in Firefox 2 contains locally saved copies of recent web pages you have visited. This is done so that the next time you visit the page, Firefox can load it from your saved copy which will be much faster than loading it from the Internet.
