For Firefox, go into about:config and set:
accessibility.blockautorefresh to true

Lots of sites are doing nasty stuff with meta redirects, so changing that setting is a good idea. You can still click on the pop-up notice if you want to follow it.

They have a banner for Netscape 7.1, which was released in 2003-2004. Yeah, the site is a bit crufty, but I'll take that over the likes of Forbes' shiny new site that breaks if you have ad blocking enabled.
