No such luck! I don't know about earlier versions, but Communicator 4.6
(and to my knowledge all the 4.xx versions) definitely have the default
setting of retaining all cache files in the cache folder in the
preferences folder. And the storage is cumulative - after a few sessions
you may well arrive at some 20 or more MB. All you can do is delete these
files ("manually" or by employing applications such as "Cache Killer") or
set the cache in the Netscape preferences to a low value - which again
impedes good performance during a session.
I still prefer Netscape to IE, but this is certainly a drawback. Not to
speak of the RAM Cache management which in my experience is a source of
problems and cannot be manipulated with the Mac versions of Netscape.
