Clearing Internet Explorer Cache

Internet Explorer will frequently display 'old' content pages that are stored on your hard drive instead of retrieving new ones from the internet.
This is a 'feature' of IE, used to display pages quickly. However, it is not compatible with dynamic content, such as database and journal information.
Deleting the temporary files stored by IE usually fixes the problem.

From Internet Explorer
Click on Tools -> Internet Options
Click on Delete Files (under Temporary Internet Files)
Click OK
Click OK again to close the window
