In the last few days, I've caught up on about two weeks of posts in
m.s.seamonkey and m.general, and somewhere, in those several hundred
posts, there was a post mentioning files and folders in SM's cache
folder, with names like along the lines of _CACHE_001_, _CACHE_MAP_, and
folders named (hexadecimally) 0 to F

Unfortunately, after re-reading that message, I didn't re-mark it as
"Unread" so that I could easily find it, if necessary.

  From what I read in the post, someone (I think NoOp) said they were
caused by Windows and to just delete them, and not worry about it. So,
last night, after closing SM, I deleted the Cache folder. Tonight,
before I had started my SM browser, they were all back!

Should I be worried about them re-appearing?? Or at all??


There is a set of cache folders that are automatically created by
SeaMonkey (not Windows) if they do not already exist.  These are named
with the hex numbers 0-F.  This happens whether or not they are
immediately required.  If you clear your entire cache, these folders
remain.


Thanks for your reply, David, explains why, after deleting the Cache folder in Win7 last night, I now have a set of the folders, etc, in Cache this morning when I've booted into my Linux version.

So now the questions is.....What is the purpose of all these directories??
