At times Demonoid disables the back button. Like right now. The site is down: demonoid.ph.

You automatically get redirected and the link you clicked (or the keyword search you made) is lost.

 <td width="100%" valign="middle" height="100%" align="center" style="background-image: url(/images/em_bk.jpg); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-position: top left;"> <table width="300" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" align="center"> <tbody> <tr> <td width="100%" style="border: 1px solid #000000;" class="ctable_content"> <b> <font size="+2">Server too busy </font> </b> <br> <br>
		The action you requested could not be completed because the server is too busy. <br>
		 <br>
		Please try again in a few minutes <br>
		 <br>
		 <b>Do not click reload - Use the following links </b> <br>
		Clicking reload will get you this page again
		 <br> <br> <a href="/">Click here to return to the homepage </a> <br>
or <br>
 <a onclick="history.back(); return false;" href="#">Click here to go back </a> <br> <img width="1" height="10" border="0" alt="" src="/images/p.gif"> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </td>

I've wondered about this in the past, turns out it uses a HTTP redirect:

Connected to demonoid.me.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET / HTTP/1.0

HTTP/1.0 301 Moved Permanently
Cache-Control: private, max-age=190
Cache-Control: post-check=190, pre-check=190
Expires: Sat, 28 Jul 2012 13:08:12 GMT
Location: /error_messages.php?error_id=3
Content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
Content-Length: 0
Connection: close
Date: Sat, 28 Jul 2012 13:05:02 GMT
Server: Apache

so I'm almost certain that a userscript couldn't affect it, but maybe there's a browser plugin that can filter 301 redirects on specified domains?

Darn.

Like this vvv?

RefControl

Control what gets sent as the HTTP Referer on a per-site basis.

I don't really understand redirect stuff.

That addon lets you change a HTTP request header that your browser sends to a website, whereas you want to change how the browser reacts to the HTTP response header sent from a website.

Give this a try: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/...
