It's a Firefox Addon and it modifies/filters/inserts HTTP headers into the requests Firefox makes. Alterations can be enabled and disabled with a click, so you can disable them when not needed. Headers sent by the browser control which pages are cached. See http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2068.html Section 14.9 Cache-Control and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_cache#Cache_control

It may be entirely in memory. Nevertheless that was the conclusion I came to. It's not the IP address being cached, it's the response from the site I would say. Your new request is never being sent (via your new IP) because Polipo is returning the cached version of the page IMO. Anyone have other ideas?
