Yah. They're prolly using a "transparent" or "intercept" proxy. Basically, it sits between you and the Internet, and intercepts anything that looks like HTTP, and tries to cache it without the browser knowing. Sometimes telling your browser to always check the original page to see if it has changed will work around caching problems. Can you do something like use SSH to forward the HTTP connection out to an outside link, and then to GNHLUG, to see if that fixes things? -- Ben Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do | | not represent the views or policy of any other person or organization. | | All information is provided without warranty of any kind. | _______________________________________________ Gnhlug-org mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-org
