Much as I hate to provide you with ammunition JTK (more about that below),
here is an experience I had yesterday.  This is 0.9.7 which I compiled
under linux 2.4.16 (now running 2.4.17), on 29th December without mail or
news support.  The cache settings are the defaults (8192kb memory, 50,000
kb disk, comparing once per session).

About 10 am yesterday morning I went to www.jungle.co.uk (which redirects
to jungle.com).  I had been there before under this version of Moz.  They
sell computers etc.  I got a simple page saying that their system was
under maintenance and should be back by 8am (which it plainly wasn't).  I
checked back several times during the day, including after a
shutdowm/reboot, but I always saw that page.

About 10pm I tried under Opera and Galeon - both showed the site up and
running.  Moz still showed the same "system under maintenance" page.  I
deleted the memory cache (which I did not expect to work, but I was being
methodical) - same page seen after that.  I deleted the disk cache, and
Moz then displayed the page correctly.

Like I said, JTK, I hate to provide you with ammunition, but I think that
the people on this list are interested in the truth and might be
interested in my experience.  For the record, I don't flip burgers and. as
best I can recall, I last ate one in the early 1970's.  I am way too old
to be anyone's d00d.  I don't like M$ (an abbreviation I picked up on
other lists), but my dislike has nothing to do with the fact that they
make profits - I am a capitalist, or that they are American - the US does
not have a better friend overseas than me.  I do not, however, post
venomous messages on M$ lists, and I can't imagine why you do so here.
Anyway, I guess that's your privilege.

Regards,

Geoff
