I use a <codebase> element to tell the runtime to download a dll from a URL
; it caches this dll in the GAC download folder. But, if I haven't an
Internet connection available the loading fails, why??? The dll is on my
machine, so why the runtime doesn't check the download folder or probes the
appbase directory (like for a private dll)??

To work offline.
I want to use LoadFrom either online or offline, because there is the
download cache that enables working offline. But LoadFrom throws an
Exception if I am offline...

well when the app is offline you have to redirect to the right
directory...the CLR doesn't search the downloadcache when offline.
download cache is used (if i'm not mistaken) when using http/tcp - basically
URLs
