Hi Noelette,

the "problem" is not ur browser cache. Google is caching your kml too 
;). Look at:
http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Maps-API/browse_thread/thread/31a589c622c77366?pli=1

One Solution: Add a random string behind your kml name  (like 
SimpleKml123.kml) with e.g php rand().

regards,
Simon
