You can find the location of the cache on the about:cache page (open that page via the location bar like a website). Only large image and media files are stored as individual files on disk.
Other files are stored in a few large container files (_CACHE_XXX_) in the cache folder and not as separate files on disk.
The individual files on disk have random names without a file extension for security reasons: you can't open an application or start a downloaded virus inadvertently by clicking a file in the cache folder.

You can look at this extension for easier access to files in the cache.

In Firefox it is called the cache. to find the location of the cache type about:cache into the location bar. As a security measure, files in the cache are given random file names.

The CacheViewer add-on may be of use to you.
