I've noticed that images are not being cached when viewing a webpage on my server. I have tryed uploading my files to another company and when loading the pages everything is caches so I'm thinking it's something to do with the way I compiled apache with CPanel. Has anyone else had this problem and does anyone know how to fix it...
I also noticed when I try to "OPEN" and file through IE and not "SAVE" the file, the file will not be found in the temp internet files directory.
When I try doing the exact same thing from another server (not mine on rackshack) it works fine...
Any ideas?

I think it has something to do with mod_gzip and IE (do you have mod_gzip installed?). If you do, configure mod_gzip so that it does not try to gzip images (gif/jpg/png) and then it should fix it (it did for me).

Yes I have mod_gzip installed... I will try and remove it right now and I'll post a message on if it works or not...
Thanks for your reply!

It worked by removing the gzip module... I wonder why it does that...

It is because IE does not cache gzipped images. You can solve this (and keep mod_gzip) but putting the following in your httpd.conf in the
section.
