Hate those pages that automatically refresh every couple of minutes? We do too. If you are using IE, just head to Tools –> Options, go to the Security tab, click Custom Level, then find Allow META REFRESH and disable it.
Want the same thing in Firefox? Lifehacker has the answer: head into about:config and change accessibility.blockautorefresh to true.







This is a terrible idea. It will break pages that do an auto refresh to redirect you to a page. You’ll break more than you’ll fix.
