There's a new piece of news, at least. New pics. The features top rated page changes at each refresh. The threads as well. There's one new video every 2-3 days or so. Gears are new. But you are right, the Article with its pic has been the same for 2 weeks or so ; the featured gear as well. The calendar, I don't know. SO I don't know what to tell you. I suppose it's more a feeling you have than a real lack of change. But what is sure is that the global aspect of the FP is always the same.

disk caching is a relic of ages long gone, when the usual means of accessing internet was the dial-up modem. browsers saved visited pages onto the HD so they would load faster, and it remains until today. to disable it, go to the browser preferences or settings or whatever (usually in edit or tool menus), search a bit and disable disc caching. that way all pages you visit will always load fresh from the net and not off your HD. offcourse, if the problem is the proxy server cache, it wont help one bit.
