Ok, I have about 4 different SWF’s that I’m working on… changing some things around and then uploading them to the internet for testing.

Problem is 1 of those 4 SWF’s don’t “seem” to update whenever I upload it. The old SWF keeps showing on through Explorer, even after restarting the computer.

Whats strange is:

- I downloaded the SWF from my webserver, ran it, and it is the new one.
- It did update after about a couple of hours.

I’m now wondering if this is a problem with my webserver, or that specific SWF. :h:

One reason could be that its stored in my internet temporary files, but if it is that… why would it only happen to that SWF. It would be a pain to have to cleanup the temporary files each time I need to update.
