Hi Chuck, MS Internet Explorer has a Security setting to disable META REFRESH (look under Miscellaneous).
HTML Meta tag redirects are generally ignored by Search engines. An actual HTTP redirect command (302) is more reliable than the Meta tag (and recognized by Search engines), but is still subject to the adopted behavior and stability of the browser. Hope this helps....
