Problem with forae (forums? fori? wtf?)

[Dr Steve]

Ever since upgrading to IE7, I have this annoying problem on these message boards. I always see the cache from last visit, and have to click "refresh" every I view a board to see any changes. This is pretty annoying. Come to think of it, it happens on yahoo, too. Any ideas? I'm sure there's just some obscure box I have to click to make the browser stop loading the cache every time I return to a page I've seen before, but I can't find it.

thanks!

your pal,


steve

i use firefox, myself, but in explorer you can go to internet options and toggle osme options. isn't there one to look for a new version of the page each time you visit?

ha, yes! that's what I'm looking for. In the old version of IE I could find it with ease. They seem to want to make each iteration of IE more incomprehensible than the last.

Crap, I'm gonna have to just go dl firefox.

bravo on the forae=foray reference, btw. :-)

Ok I found it:

for future reference, if you upgrade to IE7 this may get set without your knowledge and you have to fix it.


click TOOLS
click internet options
click [browsing history] SETTINGS
it'll be set to "NEVER CHECK A WEBPAGE FOR NEW VERSIONS"
click "EVERY TIME I VISIT"

that's it!

thanks for the help, all. I'll have to find another reason to move to firefox. Just as an aside, my first "browser" was a text browser on a 300 baud modem. I thought it rocked at the time. That's how old I am.
