I found Firefox>Tools>Options>Advanced>Network>Settings to configure a 
proxy.  It turned out that my version of Fiddler uses port 8888 instead 
of 8080, but I finally figured that out.

Some of my HTML pages may reference 8+ static files (.js, .css, .jpg, 
etc.).  With Fiddler, I see that Firefox isn't repeatedly requesting 
cached files, but Internet Explorer is.  I mentioned before that only 
headers are exchanged, but is there a way to make IE stop repeating 
requests for cached files?
