Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open forums.gleemax.com

Did you change the value of the pref network.http.redirection-limit in about:config? Did you try if it works when you change the useragent string?
I have the same problem in Firefox 3 RC 1 with http://icpcres.ecs.baylor.edu/onlinejudge/index.php too. Page loads OK in Safari/IE/Firefox2. My pref for "network.http.redirection-limit" is set to the (default) 20 in about:config.
