I've often found that my browser is using a cached value of the
search page.  I wish Ebay would set the page up so that we couldn't

Under Netscape, hold down the SHIFT key while clicking reload to
force a full reload of the page irrespective of any caching.  I
don't know how to do it under IE (CTRL-RELOAD?)

everything skips the 25th and 24th.  Today is the 28th, of course.

I've tried deleting caches, rebooting, killing security settings,
reloading pages, shift/ctrl/alt/nosescratch-reloads, and nothing
matters.  It's stuck, and I can't get the search results to update.

ebay says everything is just fine and it must be my browser needs
upgrading or something.  I think my machine is going flaky...
