I was attempting to access a page on talktalk.net's web site and mistyped the
URL causing the browser to redirect to this URL
http://www.talktalk.net/talktalk/servlet/gben-error-ServiceUnavailable however
upon visiting this URL Mozzila repeatedly refreshes the page and doesnt actually
display anything.  The page is blank (There is nothing between the <BODY> HTML
tags however the browser should not get into a loop and continually refresh.
The same effect occurs in Firefox

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Mozzilla/Mozilla Firefox
2. Point the browser at this page
http://www.talktalk.net/talktalk/servlet/gben-error-ServiceUnavailable

Actual Results:  
The page continally refreshed as if it was in a loop of some kind

Expected Results:  
Load the page and stop
The page contains:
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0;
URL=/talktalk/servlet/gben-error-ServiceUnavailable">

which is telling it to do exactly what you report.  The page is defective. 
Report your complaint to the webmaster.

By the way, other browsers do exactly the same thing.

Marking invalid.
