Still I am getting the old page in my PC! (Cache Problem)

By: Team (Support)   Posted on: January 3, 2012

Every web browser stores a cache of the websites you visit to reduce bandwidth usage and server load. This is called the browser's cache, typically these items (html pages, images, scripts, multimedia files, cookies etc. ) are stored in the Temporary Internet Files folder. When you visit the same page for a second time, the browser speeds up display time by loading the page locally from cache instead of downloading everything again. This sometimes results in less than current versions of web pages being displayed.

Secondly, when the cache fills up, performance can slow down and your hard drive may run out of space. So you should periodically clear the cache to allow your browser to function more efficiently. Our suggestion is a weekly cache removal.
