AOL famously uses a dirty great cluster of proxies, that are known to ignore No-cache headers and where different IP addresses can be used to fetch different elements of the same page - if the page has a couple of image links, those could be fetched from a different address. The next page fetch could come from somewhere else too. Basically, anything that relies on a single IP address, or the IP address staying constant through a session, or on no caching, may fail on AOL. - Peter |
