Hey Greg...What happened to the IWETHEY front page?
I logged on, but the front page (the one with all the fora listed on it) did not show me as logged on. (Of course, all the LRPDs didn't show up either.) Each forum page shows me logged on, with the correct set of LRPDs for that forum.
Any ideas?

And another issue:
I go to one of the fora, and add a reply to an existing post. I save the post, and I see the post Subject line in its proper place in the thread. So far, OK! Next, I go back up to the head of the thread (which I have already opened), and continue scanning the thread. My post is not in the thread. If I go back to the outline page, and explicitly go to my subject line, it's there, alright! But It cannot be seen from a post in the thread where it previously was not displayed It's almost like the cacheing has suddenly gotten a case of steroids.
To be sure, I'm on a foreign computer (at on of the branch offices), and I'm using Insecure Exposer instead of my trusty Moz. but not even IE in any previous setting has behaved like this before.
Any Ideas? (And how does one set the cacheing agressiveness quotient on IE, anyway?)

Infernal Exploiter
Goto internet options, someplace there is a neato little thing that says...only use "this" much for cache... also has a DELETE any cache option.
The other thing is... IE SUCKS>

Sheesh!
OK, someone who is much more familiar with Insecure Exposer showed me this little doohickey:
Tools | Internet Options... | General, then access the Settings... button, and set the "Check for Newer Versions of Stored Pages (which is Micros~1-esque for "Cache Refresh", apparently) to "Automatic" (from its previous setting, which was "Never").
LRPDs and other forum behavior returns to normal.
Gad, I hate working with Micros~1 shit!!!

What Bill said. Except...
Except use a CTRL-Refresh, that will force your browser to re-get and content it thinks it already has.
I believe what you are seeing is an after effect of the change in IP Addr.
