Help! Internet Explorer Not Refreshing....

keong
Hi, I've got this irritating problem on IE6. 0 (WinXP). My IE6 doesn't check for new versions of pages. I've set the settings to check automatically or on each visit to the page. However, regardless of whatever I do, it appears to only check each time I start IE6.
