Yes, I was talking about request headers. Anyway, since this is only for testing I don't see how hard it is to run (say) curl to fetch the page with "Pragma: no-cache" (or "Cache-control: no-cache"). If you must see it on a browser you can either view the page you fetched (ugly) or after running curl try shift-reload again and hopefully the cache will return again the *new* content. > But back to the original question: Can anybody list the ISP's that > don't use transparent proxies, even not for ADSL users who access > foreign (long distance) sites? No, I never did such research. When I was connected to Netvision's ADSL it looked like we did not have a transparent proxy, but I'm not sure. In Barak's connection, I did notice a transparent proxy in place. Anyway, if you ever find one ISP that doesn't doesn't filter your port 80, you can run a non-caching proxy on it (on some random port) and then use that proxy from whatever ISP you normally connect to. I used this trick once to circumvent the 2 layers (!) of transparent proxies we have at work. -- Nadav Har'El | Tuesday, Apr 9 2002, 27 Nisan 5762 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone: +972-53-245868, ICQ 13349191 |Just remember that if the world didn't http://nadav.harel.org.il |suck, we would all fall off. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
