this issue only occurs with lightspark on firefox
I use arch linux, if that helps
I have reproduced the issue with lightspark-common 0.7.2-3.1+b1 i386 High-performance SWF player - common data (debian). I was directed here after reporting the issue to github (I have lightspark disabled now).

The redirection does not occur with JavaScript disabled (probably because light-spark does not run). Since iceweasel (similar to firefox) stoped reliably stopping running scripts when I disabled JavaScript, I now use NoScript.
