Damn - isn't this the same (or very similar) to a problem we first
discovered (and discussed on this mailing list) when Netscape 4.0 first
appeared? I thought they'd managed to fix that around Version 4.03 or
thereabouts?
Confirmed, Netscape Navigator 4.05 under SunOS 5.5.1 definitely fires off
"client refresh" queries for bookmarks.

Well, you can hack Squid or you can complain to Netscape to get the
behaviour either fixed, or at least made optional. Damn, damn, damn..
