ok people, now something i found out...this is new to me since today (since 2hours).
i'm on a website (not on everyone it works, sometimes it does, sometimes not). when i press reload with the mouse in my browser (IE5.5; all actual patches) it reloads the page as he should. when i press CTRL-R he comes with the same window, as it comes when you're trying to reload a POSTed website. then the strange thin happens (i had to sniff myself to see what happens): 1. my browser asks the dns server for the host: ie.search.msn.com 2. my dns passes 207.68.185.58 / 207.68.176.190 / 207.68.176.250 back 3. my browser makes a POSTING with folowing data: -------------------- SNIP 1 ------------ POST /de-ch/srchasst/srchasst.htm HTTP/1.1 Referer: http://ie.search.msn.com/de-ch/srchasst/srchasst.htm Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded Host: ie.search.msn.com Connection: Keep-Alive Cache-Control: no-cache Cookie: smc_cid=id=be26e06f8186b14ab4674961a2997e46&dob=20031024;
