Had a similar issue some time back when using an Access Kenya link.

If you use firefox, you can override the cache by pressing

Ctrl-F5 or Ctrl-Shift-R

You might be forced to do this a number of times.

Hope this works.

It makes sense on news sites, web mail sites, banking sites etc. where
you dont want to expire content between visits as it may have changed
or for security reasons (banking sites for instance...).

If you are serving up half a dozen  pages with static content, which
is what most sites do, you shouldnt be setting those flags.

the problem with the caching at accesskenya is their caching does not
recognize when a page has changed intelligently, -- since the problem
is not present with other isps..
