Firefox is prefetching an old server site/screen shot when site has moved to a new server.
As site which I go to daily many times moved from one server to another on December 31, 2010. Firefox and MS continue to send me to the 'screen shot' dated 30Dec2010, although on occasion it will take me to the correct location. If I leave the site open it will gravitate back to the 30Dec2010 'screen shot.' On other computers (Comcast and Net Venture's tech support) there is no problem. How do I get my computer to go to the correct/current web page. The prefetching feature is taking me to an obsolete address. I get a 404-Error code

Reload a web page and bypass the cache with:
- Press and hold Shift and left-click the Reload button.
- Press "Ctrl + F5" or press "Ctrl + Shift + R" (Windows,Linux)
- Press "Cmd + Shift + R" (MAC)
I tried your solution and it did not work. The page kept refreshing to the old webesite/screen shot of 30Dec2010.
