Simple Clear Cache Button

Clearing your cache shouldn’t be that hard of a job to do. Firefox 1.5 brought us some new security toys to play around with, but what if you need a button to clear your cache right now? You can turn that 30 second job into a 3 second job with the Simple Clear Cache Button.

For those of you who might be lost as to what your cache really is, let me explain. Cache is memory that holds copies of recently accessed data and information. Several Web browsers out there keep recently viewed pages in a cache so users can return to them quickly without suffering network delays.

What does this extension do? It does one job and it does it very well. The Simple Clear Button extension adds a toolbar button to open the Clear Private Data panel from Firefox’s main window. You can place this button anywhere you like by dragging it from the Customize Toolbar window. Now how hard was that?

I can tell you one thing for sure, this beats hunting through links and options to do the same job. The Simple Clear Cache Button is for Firefox versions 1.5 and higher. If you want to download it and give it a shot, you can do so here.
