Clearing Your Browser Cache

If you are not getting the most updated information from a website, you might need to clear your browser cache.  The cache is the location where copies of web pages are stored on your computer so that the browser does not have to download all the images and content again and again.  Normally this saves time and makes your web pages load more quickly.

To clear out your browser cache, use the following steps:

Internet Explorer, choose TOOLS > INTERNET OPTIONS > BROWSING HISTORY > DELETE... > TEMPORARY INTERNET FILES.

Firefox, choose TOOLS > OPTIONS > ADVANCED > NETWORK > OFFLINE STORAGE and then press CLEAR NOW.
