iam using the follow code to download a http file... it works, but since the file is stored temporary, it doesnt actually download a new version sometimes...

If URLDownloadToFile_(0, URL$+IPListFileName$, IPListFileName$, 0, 0) 0
MessageRequester("Info!", "Couldn't Download IPList!", 0)
EndIf

probably someone of you knows a better way, that will actually download the file EVERY time...

thx for you time,

If your using IE try adjusting the settings for temp internet files. In the past IE's cache has caused me many problems.
