Hi,

In general, each user of a computer system has their own user profile, and they would not be able to view the profile of a different user, so in that context, I would not expect multiple users to be able to share a single cache.

On my system I have the cache mapped to

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Mozilla\SeaMonkey

which will automatically be different (and have the correct NTFS permissions) for each Windows user. However, if you have a single Windows user with multiple Mozilla profiles, then you may need to either use Mozilla default profiles, or set up five sub folders for each cache.

I think the cache setting only affects the main cache, not the other special caches.

I installed SeaMonkey in its own directory: C:\SeaMonkey2.  I have 5
profiles.  I set my cache preference for all 5 to use
C:\SeaMonkey2\cache.  I set my privacy preference for all 5 to erase my
cache when terminating SeaMonkey, no matter which profile is in use when
I terminate.

I find that there are other caches being created in each profile.  For
example, I see startupCache and mozilla-media-cache both in the same
profile.  In another profile I see both startupCache and OfflineCache.
Contrary to my preference setting, none of these are erased when I
terminate SeaMonkey.

Are there preferences (1) to erase these on termination and (2) to place
these all within C:\SeaMonkey2\cache?
