[Zope-dev] Problems with offline MS IE 5

[Ross Boylan]

Applying W2K SP1 seemed to fix up this problem.  However, the original 
problem may not have occurred instantly, so perhaps it takes a bit more to 
bring it out.

At any rate, I also upgraded to IE 5.5, so I hope that will be the end of 
the bad caching behavior.

Thanks, Jens, for your response.
