FP 2003 Opens Files in Temp Cache instead of from web via IE toolbar button

Hello.

I have a strange problem that has developed at two installations of FP 2003.

When I attempt to open my website from the IE toolbar button for Frontpage the
page that opens is one that is in the cache.

For example if I attempt to open a site page

http://www.site.com/page.html

I get the following:

c:\Documents and Settings\My Name\Local Settings\Temporary Internet
Files\Content.IE5\W71M7CR5\page[1].htm

This is very strange behavior which I have been unable to thwart with an
uninstallation and reinstall. I even downloaded and ran FPCleaner.exe which
worked on one occasion but not since.

How can I get FP 2003 to download the correct page and not use this temporary
cache file?

I have all the Office updates installed and I am running Windows XP Pro SP2
with all the updates. Additionally it's a fresh install of Windows. The same
problem occurs intermittently at work.

Thanks in advance.

I think I answered my own question (as usual).

I changed the option in Control Panel - Internet Options - General tab -
Settings -

to

"Check for newer versions of the page" At Every Visit.

That seems to have done the trick.

Thanks anyway.

Just shut down, then delete everything in the temp folder.
Frontpage will recreate the file that it needs. Sometimes it just gets
corrupted.
