Say, you boot your computer first thing in the morning. Then you open Firefox (or IE, or Opera, whatever). It takes a moment or two to open. But until you shut down your computer again, the browsers GUI (what you see on the screen) every time you open your browser comes up much quicker than it did at first (this is the same as any program on your computer that you open and then close later on, and open again). The reason it opens very quick each successive time to open it (until you shut down) is because of the "cache". Are there three or four web pages you visit every day? The reason those load almost instantly is also because of the cache.
