_NPCScan: Cache not clearing

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What version of the add-on are you using? 4.0.3.6 both the _npc scanner and 
over lay are both up to date from curse

What version of World of Warcraft are you using? (Please include language) 
english 4.0.6.13623

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?  I am seeing that even 
after clearing the cache.  The mobs are still being stored.  I get a message 
across my screen such and such is cached.   This happens even I I log in while 
in Flight over borean tundra.  I get a whole list of creatures cached.   

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. any toon logging in for example Lil Timmy in stormwind is cached
2.  I have exited the game while in flight also deleted all the files log back 
in and still get the message
3.

Please provide any additional information below.

Windows XP PRO SP3
I have removed the saved variables from the WTF.  I deleted the addons folders 
than reinstalled both addons.  I deleted the whole cache file.  I have done 
this multiple times.  There are several reports on Curse about this with no 
replies to them.  It has been going on for a couple months now

Have you made sure that WoW is completely closed before clearing your cache?  
If you leave it running, the cache won't clear properly.

After you close WoW, do you have this file in your World of Warcraft folder?
  Cache/WDB/enUS/creaturecache.wdb

That's the only file that actually needs to be deleted.  If you can't find it, 
then you'll have to find the Cache folder WoW is using by searching your drive 
for "creaturecache.wdb".

yes I delete that file every time    i even delete the whole cache file   only 
way to clear it I have found so far  it to remove  all the .lua .bak files 
under all the toons and the saved variables file than it clears completely

it was working just fine till the last update  all i would have to do is delete 
the mention file and all gone
