Auto-refresh? A stupid question

[Rebecca]

This is stupid but....

I have a laptop that has the newest IE version, and a
brand new PC w/ newest IE version. Now, on my laptop when
I'm looking at web pages if I press the "back" button
it'll automatically refresh the info on the page I go
back to (which I need as pages I look at have rotating
info. and the updates are part of the reason I go back!).
But on my PC when I press back it'll display the old
info, I have to hit F5 or refresh to get the update page.

Is there a setting I'm missing?? Is there something I can
set to make it auto-refresh?! It's stupid but I want to
have them function the same...and it's bugging me what I
should do! Any help is appreciated.

I just made an upgrade from IE5.5 to IE6.0. Now I have a problem, that I. E.
is not working with any HTML tag:
e.g.<META http-equiv="Refresh" content="0;URL=/....">
Answer: I found it.
In the IE-Options->security, I had to allow "META REFRESH".
