a really special problem
hi, everybody
i have a really special problem. i surf the internet everyday and i mostly visit the same websites. About 14 days ago it started. one of my favorite newssite didn't update anymore even they update every 30 minutes. I got for about one week the same Homepage! only, if i opened a column, there were the updated contents. i checked it on another computer and there it worked. after one week it started to get normal. but now i have the same problem again and even worse, two more websites have the same problem. i tried antivirus, ad-aware, spybot etc.. i really have no idea what's the problem? I have a pt4, os : win xp pro, ie 6.0 ( i tried it with opera and got the same result--- nytimes from last thursday ) many thanks for your help mark |

Sounds like an ISP issue, they could be using caching proxy servers.

Did you try Tool -> Internet Options -> Settings -> Every visit to the page, on Internet Explorer.

I was thinking of that, but if Opera does it too, I think it's an upstream issue.

hi,
i talked to my isp. they told me, that it isn't a problem of the isp. they said to press Ctrl+F5 and it worked. but now i always have to do this if i want an update from the webpage. What caused this problem? do you have any idea? thanks a lot for your help. mark |

Your ISP is caching the web pages and do not want to admit it. This is why they are telling you to press CTRL-F5, this forces a full refresh when the page is cached by the ISP.

Did you try what bonzai said? There should be a way to force refresh automatically through your settings. Just like bonzai said, go to Internet Options >> Settings (under temporary internet files) >> (Check for newer versions of stored pages:) check "every visit to the page".
I don't believe that an ISP would have control over this, if so - please explain to me how they could (out of curiosity). |
