Problem is with site it appears. Redirects in the following order
https://www.ewsb.co.uk/Home2/ASPScripts/Logon.asp
https://www.ewsb.co.uk/Home2/ASPScripts/Unsupported.asp
https://www.ewsb.co.uk/Home2/ASPScripts/ChangePasswordEdit.asp
https://www.ewsb.co.uk/Home2/ASPScripts/Unsupported.asp
and loops on the last two. (tested with default wget user-agent)

When the user-agent is IE 6.0 and all other factors remain the same it doesn't
go into a loop.
