There is far mroe too it then that. I have done connections with IE
5,5.5,6 to localhost without a proxy and it still does not always grab the
latest version of a page. When it does not it usually does not even make a
request to the server. Sometimes I even see it return an error message
that was returned by zope 30 minutes or more earlier with no network
traffic. IE has a LOT of http problems and caching is just one of the many
that is has.
