These files normal

There are a bunch of files here are they normal?

C:\Users\Home\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\sxmt9mt3.default\Cache_CACHE_003_
C:\Users\Home\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\sxmt9mt3.default\Cache_CACHE_002_

Stuff like that.

They are the firefox browser cache folders.

Firefox doesn’t store file in the browser cache using the same name as that which was on-line and they don’t have a file type after them. So this is normal in firefox, provided they are in the locations stated.

As stated above, they are the normal Firefox browser cache’s. I have found evidence of JS/script… malware in Firefox cache_03 a few times during Avast! scans. Just an FYI

Is that path “C;\Users” normal?
My Firefox cache appears (IIRC) under documents and settings.

Yep, think so, at least it’s the same for me in vista…

As Scott said yes, for Vista, I use XP Pro and that would be a Docs & Settings User Name location, unless you have moved the Browser Cache to a different drive as I have. I hate the clutter in the boot drive.

It may also depend on which user account it was installed under.

C:\Users\Home\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\sxmt9mt3.default\Cache_CACHE_003_

i have another file like this in my virus chest under infected with same path.
How can i submit the file to virus total without it damaging the computer.

Personally I don’t believe it is worth the hassle as essentially it a temporary file from the browser cache. That is an HTML style file which could have had code inserted into it.
