This is a stab in the dark since I haven't look at this in detail, however I have encountered the same issue. It seems to be an issue when running Netscape 6.2x and Mozilla on the same machine. I would assume they are using 2 slightly different cache methods.
When I encountered this - I notice right away it was when I ran both together. I tested this by closing both, clearing my Mozilla cach and all went back to normal. I then reopened Netscape 6.2x, browsed around a bit and the problem immediately re-appeard. Try it out - I'm pretty sure this must be your issue. Cheers, Shawn Jason A.
