Hi Butzi,

Do you have a keyboard? Tapping ALT should bring the menu bar up.

Hi Butzi,

Firefox has a couple different ways to clear the cache:

(1) Options dialog

"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced

On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"

If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.

(2) History menu

"3-bar" menu button (menu bar) > History > Clear Recent History

Click Details to expand the list and uncheck the boxes for types of personal data other than cache. Also check the time range at the top of the dialog to make sure it covers the period you want.

If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.

Any luck?

By the way, Firefox's full screen view may hide the menu and toolbar area. You can switch between full screen and normal views using the F11 key.
