Can't view published changes

Question

Here's the situation: I've got Contribute on my wife's
machine and Dreamweaver 8 on mine.
Using Contribute on her computer, I edit a page from our
website and publish it. (She's the Contribute Admin .) The change
is immediately visible on my machine, but doesn't show up on hers
until minutes later... no matter what I do. Refreshing before and
after the connection just won't work - even with a Ctrl-F5 forced
reload. If I leave her computer alone for several minutes, the
refreshed information will appear on its own.
I've cleaned out her cache (with both IE and WindowWasher),
and also set IE to ensure that she gets a fresh copy every time she
visits a page. Using FileZilla on her machine, I can download a
copy of the updated file and see that it has our latest changes...
but I still can't see an immediate an update in Contribute, nor in
a browser window on her machine.
I've read the two major Adobe KB articles on the display of
updated pages, but so far, none of their suggestions have panned
out. Obviously, this is not a matter of the host's file cache,
since I get the changes immediately on my machine.
What else can I do on my wife's computer to rectify this
display problem?
Thanks for any creative suggestions you might have.
Cheers,

Answer 1

When you click Publish, do you get any error messages, or
when you click Publish do you get the "Success, page updated"
message?
After publishing, once you have cleared the Internet Explorer
cache using Tools > Internet Options > [General Tab] Delete,
then click clear history, then browse to your website page, hold
down the control key and click refresh to force a re-load of the
page.
Also, perhaps try another browser like Firefox to see if that
makes a difference.
FYI when you click edit in Contribute, it actually saves a
copy of your page locally on your computer, makes the updates to
your local copy, then when you click Publish it FTPs up this local
copy to the server.
