I realized that on the Tor Browser 3.0 beta and rc1, media cache such as
youtube videos are being written on the disk, in the following file:
Data\Browser\profile.default\mozilla-media-cache\media_cache
After watching several videos, the file became so big (hundreds of MB)
that it fulled up my disk.
I tested this on Windows XP and 7
