I have updated my website. The updated version doesn't appear in Firefox Yahoo searches, but does when I use Internet Explorer. Shouldn't it update immediately? This problem has gone on for over 24 hours!

Using Firefox, I updated my website yesterday. When viewed using Yahoo in Firefox, the older, previous version of my website was displayed.

It is now over 24 hours since my update, but Yahoo in Firefox still displays the out of date website. 

This does not happen when the website is viewed using Internet Explorer - Internet Explorer started to show the updated version immediately... Why hasn't Firefox?
