auto-refresh on back button

[Arthur Dent]

Recently, I've found that pages are getting auto refreshed when I browse back to them through the Firefox browser history instead of just taking the version from the cache as before. Since I don't believe Firefox has changed, I wonder if something is different on the GRB end. Has anyone else experienced this or know what might be going on? I find this behavior annoying for a number of reasons and would like to turn it off.

FWIW, I find that this happens to me when I am not logged in, using IE 6, from my home computer only.

It's always been this way for me since it's transferred over to the new style. I actually prefer it this way. Stop living in the past, yo.

I've been using the new style since the beginning, and this only started recently on Firefox. It's always happened with IE. I find it annoying because the network at work likes to log me out randomly (I think my IP address is getting dynamically reassigned) which causes me to lose posts on submission. I used to be able to save them with the back button, but now the auto-refresh is killing that. Also, auto-refresh screws up the read/unread markers.

I use IE, so I can't really help I guess.

Somethings seems to have gone wrong with the cache. I flushed it and everything is back to normal.
