Whenever I visit a web page I have to force refresh it to see the latest version. Never had this issue before.

Hello grajay, try to change to 1 the next preference value : browser.cache.check_doc_frequency in about:config. Follow the next steps :

  1. In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter. The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
  2. Click I'll be careful, I promise! to continue to the about:config page.
  3. copy and paste in the search field the next bold : browser.cache.check_doc_frequency
  4. double-click on it and change the value to 1
  5. click OK (to save it), close the about:config tab, exit firefox and restart it.
