This computer what I use is all the way **** but F1ATLAS bulletin board pages doen't update itself correctly.

For example:
I answer to one topic and information tells me message has importet or whatever. But when its updating page, theres no my reply in page. 2nd but. When i check the page day after reply, VOILA!, my reply is there.

Its very annoying when reading latest topic because I can't see them!

I have never saw same problem other webpages?
Is that cause of Bulletin Board or IE5.1 settings (currently default)?

What you describe normally happens when you connect through a proxy server (your ISP's), and the proxy's cache is set to check for a new version of the page every x amount of time, and not every visit.

You can over-ride that by changing your own browser settings: in Internet Explorer go to Internet Tools. On the first tab, under "Temporary Internet Files" click on Settings. There, at the top, choose the option to check for newer versions of stored pages "every visit to the page."

In any case, the problem you have is not server-side but rather client-side, and probably because your ISP's proxy is configured badly.

Regards,
