Well, I have to admit that I never have been able to make the cache
browser work. When I started the cache browser it started scanning
the cache and (probably when it was finished) then it crashed.

Futhermore I have always found the cache browser as well as About:cache
useless since it takes the cache browser or Voyager, respectively, close
to a decade to scan the cache.

I have never had any problems with 2.95 with respect to this. Voyager
has just nicely kept the size of the cache at the limit I have set, and
when I recently decided to make the 2.95 cache half its previous size
(because I now use V3) then Voyager 2.95 just nicely removed half the
size of the cache.

My V3 cache hasn't reached its maximum size yet, so I don't know if it
works.
