my homepage is about:cache I see in the disk memory category 23 or 25 instances of png files with cloudfront. net in the pathname, or url. This has occurred in every session of use of firefox. It does not clear when I clear history. It does, however, clear on a restart, I think. This is not a problem. I just need to know if it is normal. Or, if some other application is calling cloudfront.
