The Mozilla Foundation has made the second release candidate of Mozilla Firefox 1.5 available. The release notes list one new addition in Firefox 1.5 Release Candidate 2.

The software update tool in Firefox 1.5 release candidates is great; I was able to upgrade from RC1 through a menu command from the moment I heard this news. Additionally, the update tool is semi-automated (it didn't prompt me to run the installer) and for an incremental upgrade doesn't even need to download the entire full-size file.

To be honest, I can't notice the difference between Firefox 1.5 RC1 and this version (1.5 RC2)

I'm impressed to see that the Themes and the extensions I use all work with 1.5rc2, but must add that I didn't try rc1.

Now, does anyone know where FF1.5 is hiding the Cache folder. I don't have one, and, another fellow I know does not either.
The profile forFF1.0.7 surely does.

On Win 98 the cache is in the same place as 1.07: C:/Windows/Application Data/Mozailla/Firefox/Profiles/name of profile/Cache

So far, I haven't experienced the crashing problems I had with RC1. Not sure why, the release notes don't address the issue. But glad that it SEEMS to be solved.

There is a location for the folder, but, in WinXP, it is not in the expected profile path. In order to find it, you have to type about:cache. and, the, you find: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\wrsyjdtd.Firefox1.04\Cache
Notice the Local Settings. That's acurve that I did not expect.
