Check the setting on your browser. You are only seeing the cached pages and not the updated page on the server. Make sure you set your cache preferences to check for an update every time a page is accessed.

For IE, click on Tools/Internet Options. Then click the Settings button. Make sure that "Check for new versions of stored pages" is set to "Every visit to the page".

It could also be a cacheing problem with your ISP. What some ISPs do nowadays is to cache the pages their uses download, so that if another request for the same page comes in within a few seconds or minutes, they don't themselves then have to pass the request onto the source machine, but can just send back the page themselves. This really cuts down on the bandwidth an ISP has to pay for, and that is usually by far their biggest cost.

I'm now going to move this thread to Computers/Internet issues...
