Thanks for this script. It doesn't catch the redirects every time, so sometimes I have to try more than once, but at least it enables me to use pages that otherwise be inaccessible without using a different browser (or having to press "Stop loading this page" repeatedly as I navigate around the site). So far I have no need to customize it, which is good because I'm fairly computer illiterate.

It works and it's easy to use. The only issue is needing to open greasemonkey's configuration each time I want to exclude a site from the meta-refresh blocker.

Doesn't work on every page , Jul 19, 2009

This one doesn't fix the Foxnews auto refresh problem. That's the only reason I really need it.

A sample of the problem: http://www.foxnews.com/photoessay/0,4644,2976,0...

By the 5th click it will refresh.

  • 5 stars (EXCELLENT) - Not only does everything it claims, but it is significantly more useful than scripts of similar nature. This script is likely to be one you use often and you highly recommend it.
  • 4 stars (GOOD) - Useful and easy to use, though not necessarily special. This script is recommended but may be more suited for some people over others.
  • 3 stars (PASSABLE) - May have some design issues and/or some missing features. Any problems it has are not drastic enough to recommend against, and some people may still find it useful. Recommended for those who need it and are willing to give it a try.
  • 2 stars (POOR) - Script is of low quality, usability, or just doesn't do what it says it should. You are recommending against this script, while noting that it might have some redeeming value for a few people.
  • 1 star (BAD) - Script either doesn't work correctly or is utterly useless. You can't think of any significant reason why someone should give it a try and are recommending that it be avoided completely.

This is a great alternative for the AMO extension RefreshBlocker since it didn't work in Firefox 3.0 for a while. Thanks again. :) * 2
