It can't be IE 5, or it's a configuration option (and I didn't find it just
now), I'm running IE 5 as I type this and I can go back and forth no problem.
There IS behaviour on some server generated pages where IE will prompt you to
repost the info because it expired from the cache (presumably the webserver
set the expire that way on purpose) and you have to hit refresh.
Frank can speak for himself but I suspect he's running 4 or 4.5 or something.
If it's in 5.5 as the default I think I'm going to be ill.
(I've switched from NS to IE as my primary browser, I get less crashes this
way)
