A user at a company visits a weather website often during the day. The user browses to the site in the afternoon and notices that the temperature listed is from the morning and is not the current temperature. The user closes the page and tries again with the same result. Which of the following is the MOST likely cause?
When a user observes outdated information on a frequently visited website, the most likely cause is a corrupted cache. Web browsers use a cache to store copies of web pages and content, which helps in loading pages faster on subsequent visits. If the cache becomes corrupted or doesn't update properly, it may display stale or old content instead of the latest information from the website. Clearing the browser cache usually resolves this issue by forcing the browser to fetch the most recent content from the server.
I think it's C
The proxy could be running through a different time zone, so it would be messed up.
And the proxy have its own cache.
I think is A, because it say a user at a company check weather. And afternoon most chance is still in company. And when you use their network, usually you need use proxy server and not direct connect to internet. So when proxy server of the company was using went wrong, it will do this.
The correct answer should be C. Even though a proxy has cache it would be updated regularly and the key item is A USER not MULTIPLE USERS is having this issue. If more than one were having the issue it would be proxy related in my opinion.
C. Corrupted cache Web browsers use caching to store copies of web pages, images, and other content to speed up page loading times on subsequent visits. If the cache becomes corrupted or does not update properly, it can result in old or stale content being displayed instead of the most current version of the site. Clearing the browser's cache is a common solution to this problem, forcing the browser to fetch the latest content from the server.
The correct answer is C) Corrupted cache Because the webpage is saved in the cache and that's why is misbehaving and showing the same information, because is locally store in the cache. Proxy server can be correct too because the server has its own cache but at the end the problem is with CACHE, so that's why I think corrupted cache is most fitting
