                                                                                                                                                                      C:\Users\user\appdata\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\i4unw84s.default\databases\https_cashier.bovada.lv_

Both of these website databases have 64 KB and are io_temp.sqlite files. I want to know how they were created and what information is being stored there. I know my boyfriend goes on the bovada site alot but want to know if he has personal login info stored for both of these sites. I know they aren't cookies because I saw the list of cookies and deleted them and these files are still there. I really want to know if the only way the websites could be in the folder is because he intentionally saved info stored on those sites and if not, then why are they part of his roaming profile?

hello, i could find no documentation whatsoever on what the databases folder within the profile or a io_temp.sqlite-file would do in the context of firefox (maybe this was an early version of dom storage or indexeddb). if you are having questions about the usage of these sites by your boyfriend, you should probably speak with him directly about this, instead of finding an answer this way...

Ok thank you anyway for trying to help me figure this out. I didn't want to ask my boyfriend till I knew what the files were. But we'll figure it out. Thanks!
