Dear Member,

Thank you for your query today. We are always more than happy to help with any problems that might arise.

I appreciate that you've taken the time to allow us an opportunity to handle this for you. I truly apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you. I understand the urgency in correcting all your concerns and I am most willing to help you further.

For your recent enquiry, I would like to let you know that when you take down a web page and alter it , and then re-upload it you may notice that you still see the old page .This is because your temporary internet files are remembering the old page for fast access to it and so this is the page that is displayed. To avoid this , after uploading you need to delete your temporary internet files and clear your internet history .

To do this click on START -
SETTINGS - CONTROL PANEL. From there double left click on INTERNET OPTIONS. Once on this screen find the button marked DELETE FILES and click it once. Confirm that you wish to delete the temporary internet files. Now locate the button marked CLEAR HISTORY and click that once also. Again confirm that you wish to clear the current web page History. When you reload the page also press F5 on the keyboard to refresh the page to its most recent appearance.

I hope that this is to your satisfaction. If you do have any further questions with regard to this, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

Take care and have a nice day :)

Kind Regards,

AOL UK Member Services.

heatherasplin is a member with some impressive military pages

http://hometown.aol.co.uk/mt.ssp?f=sr&query=heatherasplin&cid=&start=11&type=h

but I cannot view them except in google's cache
because your server is so slow
