I AM sooooooooooo tired of this problem I've had for months and nobody here has helped me when I brought it up 4 other times. Judith I have IE 6.0 with Win XP Home as OS on a Gateway. I can't get my computer to give up the cache for several days even though I have used the Internet Options and cleared everything. Now if I don't go to my web sites, do changes, ftp them up -- then I can see the changed pages. But if I go to my site first, then I can't see the changes I've made for several days. Now I have even gone into explorer.exe and looked for any temp cache files. Nothing. So I googled and it said maybe an index.dat file might be causing this? Does anybody know how I can correct this?
