It's a javascript driven redirect, turn of javascript, no redirect.
Don't know how you turn that off in IE, but it's pretty simple in the
Mozilla family.

Some people are born normal, some people achieve normality, and some
have normalcy thrust upon them by a nice nurse with a hypodermic.

Thanks to all who pointed our that I should stick to Opera and get the
hell out of IE. I use separate news readers and mail programs, so it's
not like I'd miss the squirrelly thing.

I used to run Netscape, but it got buggy as hell after version 5.

We've got most of them here as we (my company develops software) do
web development. I have almost all of the Windows variety on this
machine. The one I use for most browsing is Firebird 0.7. That's the
latest Mozilla (Netscape) available free at
http://www.mozilla.org/firebird/. It's fast, standards-compliant,
easy to use and takes lots of available plugin's and extensions. To
turn off Javascript is simply Tools-Options-Web Features and click
off "Enable Javascript".

Thanks. I just installed Opera (I had in on a workstation in the late
'90s...dunno why I didn't stick with it), but good ol' Mozilla's still
an option. My favourite part of Netscape was the way it handled link
archiving, an aspect I dislike (among others) in IE....pronounced
"Aieeee!".

Microscum's explorer is a very unsecure browser. You simply can't shut all
the bad stuff off and have it still be functional. I've also switched to
Mozilla and have found the browsing is so much more like it should be.

BTW, I tried Microscum's explorer to go to the link and found that if you
hit the "stop" command just right it won't load the sign up page and you can
read the article in it's entirety without rude interruption.
