FYI here are my findings with the Opera browser (version 7.something). It 
has a nice feature which allows you to easily change the refresh-interval 
 from 5 seconds to 30 minutes. But, as I suspected, this will not work with 
a refresh that is 'forced' by the page. A META-tag resulting in a refresh 
every 60 seconds cannot be overruled by this setting (tried it by setting 
the Opera refresh interval to 5 minutes, still after 1 minute it 
refreshed!).

AFAIK this should be the right behaviour; if a browser allows you to 
override the refresh-time set by a META-tag, it is not fully compliant 
with the standards...
