You have your browser set to not cache, but is your proxy server set to not cache? Your browser is only displaying what your proxy is letting through.

I'm not certain because I am also on a large corporate network and the proxy is in another continent. However, I believe it is set to "check automatically for updates". It certainly works absolutely fine with other BBs, such as
http://www.pprune.org/forums/ .
The "sign in by cookie" also works differently from PPrune. On PPrune I don't have to reenter my userid & password when posting - the cookie does it automatically, but on FT I do.
The lightbulb function is certainly not working as you describe. It seems that somehow it is setting a cookie on the proxy, not on my machine when I connect from work. Is that possible?
