Vanilla Caching Issue

Does anyone know of a way to not have to press F5 on every page of a Vanilla forum? I have the same problem on my personal forum, and it annoys the hell out of me. Am I the only one who has this issue? I use Google Chrome, and every page loads the page that I last saw yesterday. Pressing F5 loads the new stuff. This even happens in the the threads which is super annoying.
Any ideas on how to fix this? I love Vanilla, but I can't deal with this any longer.

I don't use Chrome but maybe you can disable caching in it? Does that work?
Are you logged in when this is happening?
I know I have this problem here at LET. After I log in, the listing of posts on the front page is usually quite different than what was there before I logged in.
Usually that's a sign that whatever is being used for caching isn't expiring correctly.
I am using Google Chrome on Ubuntu and I've never had a problem yet.
Edit: I think I might have just seen what you were talking about. I went back in the history and then came forward and this comment I just left didn't show (since it was added by JS using a hash-tag). So I had to reload the page.
I thought that this is done to put all new threads and all threads you commented in on the top and not possible gaps in between.
I am using it on Windows 7. It happens while being logged in or not. I guess I can look at the caching.
@kylix no I think it's by last posted. ie Sort by the time of the last posting in that thread.
