Sometimes I use Internet Explorer as my browser, with favourite URLs saved along the 'Favorites Bar'.
I notice that the version of the website that is opened is not the latest (unless I refresh) but a somewhat earlier version (for example PPRuNe but without the latest contributions).

Is this a 'feature' of IE8?

Me too. I assumed it was to do with cookies but it will be good to get a proper explanation.

In IE9, it is Tools/Internet Options/General tab/Browsing History/Settings

Under 'Check for newer versions of stored pages, tick 'Automatically'

I strongly suspect that IE8 may be the same.

Set it to clear the history on exit, the fist time you click on delete untick cookies and passwords (assuming you wist to auto log on) job done
