changing website
Hey all,
here is a very general question and i'm not sure which forum to post it in so i'll post it in the most general one. If it needs to be moved to another one please just let me know.
My problem is such. We recently updated our webisite nad i noticed that any computer that had viewed the site previously is still looking at the old version, and those that never had are looking at the new one. For example my computer at home has viewed the site and hence i see the old one- no matter how much cache i erase, etc. The other computer which never viewed the site. Sees the new version.
I'm certain there is a solution, simply because, for example again, a site like cnn updates several times a day and yet i always see the latest. Any and all help is most appreciated.

P.S. The site is interconnections-us.com

Try clearing your cache once again, then restart the computer(s). Does it still show the old site?

Could also be a DNS issue- have you moved hosts lately? If so, it may take a while to point to the new site.

Yeah I agree with Brian, you probably need to wait 48-72 hours for propogation time before your site with the new Host will show up. Just be patient and wait a few days.
Another point, did you update the DNS(nameservers) at your Domain Registrar to point your site to the new Host's server? If you didn't do that, then it will not work with the new Host.

Thanks to everyone who responded.
Believe it or not i finally got it working, after nothing else helped, by accessing the site once with the ISP address
(aka 123.456.789) on the server computer. I don't get it but it works. Thanks again to evryone.

P.S. I didn't change hosts or servers, but if i had you probably would have been right.
