It's not clear to me what you mean.
1. I go to http://0x520b4e0b/webscr/paypal/index.html
2. The page gets black and I click "get me out of here"
3. I'm thrown back to my homepage
4. On this homepage I open a link in a new tab
5. But I don't see the forgery website load first like you describe

It works sporadically. Sometimes it appears and sometimes it doesnt. I am not able to replicate the situation with the link you provided.
