Cache is a pain in IE, typically you need to close all the windows and sometimes even restart the machine.

Netscape is a sinch since they have a cache dump option.

The really only way to clear cache is to flood it with more bytes and force the old ones out. Cache clearing can be done by flooding the banks with 0's (no data) but still push the 1's out.
