Very Computer

I am running an application on netscape which uses jar files.  However it is
picking up out of date jars.

I have cleared the netscape cache directory both manually and from netscape.
I have searched the machine for all other cahces found one, but it was
empty, did a remove anyway, paranoid at this stage.

I cleared the tmp directory of jar_cache.tmp files.  I have also searched
for all other jars on the machine and have removed the jars my application
was using and have replaced them with the current jars.

Its still finding the old ones somewhere.

Any new suggestions much appreciated.

Are you sure that it is the browser that is caching the jar files? Have you
tried removing them from the web server and confirming that the browser does
not complain that they are missing?

The reason that I ask is because I have been tricked like this recently and
eventually tracked it down to a bug in the Java IDE which I was using
(Borland's JBuilder) which was not rebuilding JARs correctly and was including
out of date versions of my class file in them! I had to delete all the class
files and JARs and then rebuild in order to force the new code through...
