Nope, that's exactly the same.  It wants to endlessly reload.  Every
time the page loads, I have a warning "Firefox prevented this page from
automatically reloading."  And I can leave the page at it's initial
load, and read the halted page, or it allow the reload.  Every time I
allow the reload, it comes up with the exact same warning.  It never
just loads once.

I have a configuration that stops pages refreshing themselves, because
I'm sick to death of reading pages that suddenly start reloading
themselves while I'm in the middle of reading them.  Or, they do so
while I'm reading another tab, and the whole browser jams up until it
completes.

I can't see why your link is doing so.  There's no *obviously* *short*
timespan meta refresh crap (likewise with the original), or _javascript_.
But I don't care what the reason is, so-called webmasters who do that
crap deserve a good caning with a flayed bamboo pole.
