Why doesn't the page refresh when I refresh the page!!!This is beginning to piss me off!!!
I've tried ctrl-refresh and shft-refresh and a lot of other variations on the theme, but it seems to refresh pages at random.
I was posting in a forum on a different site, and it refreshed straight away. Here, it doesn't!!!
wtf is going on?

also why does it give me a page not found error half the time i try to load a page? the error comes up instantly like it doesn't even connect to the dns. if i refresh it works. maybe something wrong with the cache?oh well netscape ain't too much better.

I agree totally. If you use IE, you're stuck with M$ weirdness (Microsoft sucks at TCP/IP); if you use Nutscrape, you'll most likely get the occasional crash (unless you're like me and use the oldest stable version 
); if you use Lynx, it will never crash on you, but you won't see the GroovyGraphics(tm); if you use HotJava/NCSA Mosaic/Opera/Konqueror/etc. not all pages render properly, because people code browser-specific HTML. How can you win? The answer: "wget" and "less"
