Mariner -

If you're using IE, check under Tools, Internet Options, on the General Tab, In the "Temporary Internet Files" section, click on the "Settings" button, and on the page that pops up click the top choice "Check for newer versions of stored pages" on every visit to page.

With any of the other settings, it's possible for your machine to "remember" what the page looked like when you first connected (when you didn't have your cookie), and to continue to show you what it downloaded then - even though you've changed what should be shown.

If you're using some other browser - you're on your own, although there probably is a similar setting in most of them.
