OK... you guys seem to really know what you are talking about, so here's a weird bug that Im sure you will solve:

I log on to flyertalk through one of two options. I either use my modem and connect directly to the internet (no proxy, no firewall, no nothing), or I log on when connected to a LAN, that does go through a firewall & the other usual corporate security stuff.

When Im connected through the modem, my posts do not show real time (ie. after I post & return to the page, I have to refresh for my last post to show). But, when Im connected through the LAN, I get all my posts/replies in real time (ie. no need to refresh).

In both cases, I use Netscape 4.61 with the exact same profile. The cache options are the same when I connect through one or the other means.... Thats the first issue.

Now, the really weird thing is that my real time post problem seems to appear when I connect in some countries (yes, countries) and not in others. Example: if I connect with my modem from the US, I dont have the problem, but if I connect from Mexico, I have to manually refresh..... (???)

I assure you, I dont connect to FT while under the influence of Tequila, but, why do I have this problem only when connecting from Mexico..?????

Thanks for any ideas,
