[rt-users] v2.0.6 Browser caching problems

[Derek Fage]

Hi Jesse,

I tried inserting the line as suggested, but am still seeing the same
problems.

Also tried somebody elses suggestion of modifying my internet settings to
always check for a newer page on every visit - still no joy.

After further investigation we are now faily sure that the problem is down
to our corporate proxy server, as if I modify the browser so that it does
not use the proxy server it all works fine.

The proxy server is Microsoft IAS (Internet Acceleration Server - Aaaarghhh)

Derek...

Derek:

	Try inserting this line in WebRT/Elements/Header.  If that
makes it better with IE5, I'll drop this into 2.0.7.
