I can't...I can't look away!
My Request:

A small windows app that:
* On the press of a key combination (CTRL+SHIFT+Z+X):
* Clears the Firefox Cache
* Closes Firefox
* Runs C:\Program Files\Webroot\Washer\wwDisp.exe

If closing firefox is hard, it doesn't have to do that, though I do prefer it.

Would the following work for you? I couldn't find a quick way to have a multiple key global hotkey so I made it control+alt+shift+z.

What it does:
* On press of key combination (CTRL+SHIFT+ALT+Z)
* Closes Firefox
* Executes doStuff.bat in the background
* Runs in the background. Exit by ctrl+alt+delete and end process.

With doStuff.bat you can choose exactly what you want to happen after Firefox is closed. "rem 500" at the beginning of doStuff.bat is how long to wait (in milliseconds) before executing the batch file after closing Firefox. This is so Firefox can release its grasp on the cache files so you can delete them.

Yeah, that looks great! Thanks.
