    I think Microsoft support webpages do this to the back button. I can’t get back to my search page results by clicking the back button after clicking a link to a Microsoft support webpage. It always redirects me back. I either have to hold the back button down and select the search page from the drop down or double click the back button.

    Dear lord I can’t believe this is only now becoming a feature - those redirect spammers are the worst! What do you gain from making my life more difficult? I just close the tab and search again, this time with your website blacklisted.

      Most of the time it is just some incompetent webdevs implements redirect in a bad way, but there are some websites abuse it maliciously.
