How can I stop websites from automatically reloading their page while I am or am not viewing it (drudge report, cbs, etc). I have asked this question before but never receive a useable answer - although there must surely be one. An Addon would be great. Thank you, David

Drudge report uses JavaScript to reload the page automatically every 3 minutes.

You can use this bookmarklet to disable this reload or you can disable JavaScript in the tab after the page has loaded. 

javascript:clearInterval(timer);void(autoRefresh=null);

For other websites you will have to check what will work to stop reloading their pages as each website uses their own way to accomplish this.
