It is my mistake to fill in 2chan.net and other URLs(it is my personal use URLs). Sorry and experiences bashfulness.

About google, because there is a problem when login and logout Google Account.

By the way, I noticed that since I downloaded this script several months ago, the list of excluded web sites changed. It used to exempt several 2chan.net sites and a few others. Now it exempts google instead. Is there a good reason for this?

A simple fix: One big problem is that the meta refresh is often (and improperly) used to redirect the page. Thus this script requires an extra click for many pages.

If you don't want that, edit the script, and after line 36 (just before: "if (timeout > 0) {" insert:
if (timeout < 10) return; // A refresh of < 10 secs is probably a redirect

This has been working just fine for me for months.

I installed this on latest Firefox 1.5
Unfortunately it doesn't work. Reuters.com still refreshes constantly
