Default Windows refresh

When I hit the back button on the browser, it continually
says "page expired" and I have to hit the refresh button
which brings up a box to agree....How do I turn this
off??? If I hit the back I want it to refresh
automatically.

Some pages cannot be refreshed this way, because they use cookies to =
track your session. This is particularly true of password protected =
sites. Can you give specific examples?

so, on the web sites, they are password, but not where i
am at, i don't mind so much hitting the refresh button as
much as i don't like haveing to hit the retry button that
says it is going to resend information, i don't
particularly care about that, i just want to be able to
move in and out easily

the web site is www.cpol.army.mil, i am searching federal
jobs and when you select one and try and go back is when
it does it

is there anyway to set my internet explorer to auto
refresh when i hit the refresh button with out the box
coming up to retry???

Not that I'm aware of. Its not always that the site is passworded, its =
that they use form data that can't be recalled or similar types of =
information that aren't stored from page to page.
