Heya,

Just thought I'd try a bit of testing - I can only reproduce it when clicking 
on the redirecting links in quick succession (Firefox, Vista). Is that what you 
saw?

(Note the extension isn't live everywhere - it's only on a few wikis so issues 
like these can be fixed.)

Thanks for the report!
Kirkburn
