How about a Response.Redirect()?
I'm just assuming this code was developed in FP5 (eek) and then plunged into some server-side code which would make any kind of client-side redirecting wholly obsolete.
-
How about a HTTP "Location" header and a 302 status? Oh, wait, that would be real web server administration... and that's not Enterprise enough!
-
Let's not forget that some browsers are configured NOT to follow any redirects, short of a 302. I believe Windows 2k3 server is configured that way _out of the box_. No meta refresh, no window.location=

Didnt we have something like that with a website from Marlboro?
Just imagine they outsourced this thing to the same brillant developer. This could turn out to be the biggest management WTF of all time!
