Web pages won't refresh when connected through a LAN

I'm using a company network to connect to internet. All the websites I
frequently visit always load a older version of the site (few days older).
When connected from home these pages load the correct pages. It looks like,
the pages are cached in LAN somewhere from which they are being loaded.

I have tried all the options including setting the "Check for Newer version
of Stored pages" option under Temporary internet file settings to "Every time
I visit the page"

Can you please help me resolve this issue. Its irritating to see the older
version of the pages every single time. They won't even load with F5 or
Ctrl+F5!!!

Talk to your IT department.

I am having this same issue since 9/2/08. It is an IE issue, not an IIS
issue, since accessing the same pages in Firefox gives the current,
non-cached version.

PS: I am the IT department.

Can you use HTTPS as a protocol prefix? They couldn't be cached then.

Another trick that might work is adding a "query" to your request,
as if your server was CGI and you were filling in fields with new data.
But then the server would have to ignore the query, in particular not
generate an HTTP 404 response to it. ; )


Good luck

Good thoughts, and I would normally recommend the same thing, it's not
working.

All of the pages that are caching are ASP generated, including some Excel
reports. These dynamic pages are caching in IE, but not in Firefox or
Chrome.

Mysteriously, a simple .asp page that just spits a timestamp is NOT caching
in IE, even on the effected machines. However moving to one of the pages in
our application leads to caching.

This just started this week. The app has been functioning fine for years.

I was able to resolve my caching issues by following the fix detailed in
this article:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/234067

I was already doing almost exactly that so I was surprised that it fixed it,
but it did.

My problem is lil different. When I use IE/Chrome/Firefox same old pages are
being loaded.

Is there a way to disable or bypassing the network cache?

You should have started you own thread and not tried hijacking this one.
The fact that the OP is reporting that Ctrl-F5 is not defeating whatever
apparent caching effect is being observed proves that the problem is not
on the client side.
