Due to a poorly designed web site I need to frequently delete cookies and empty cache in Firefox on 45 machines...

I took a look at CCK2 but did not see the option to delete cookies or caches...

Has anyone every found a way to automate deleting cookies and caches in Firefox? Most the client machines I need to do this on are single user.

The profile stores all the fun stuff for a user in Firefox.

In the profile you can find a cookies sqlite db. You'll have to experiment to see if you can delete it or edit it. For the cache, I'm seeing stuff dumped in profile/thumbnails/, in profile/sessionstore-backups, and in profile/cache2
