When Firefox blocks an automatic redirect, can I see the address the site wants to redirect to?

I have the "Warn me when websites try to redirect ir reload the page" box checked under the general tab in Advanced Options. Frequently I get the pop-up bar that informs me "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page." If I don't allow the redirect in most cases the site works fine although sometimes the site will no open unless I click allow. I want to see where the site is trying to send me, is there a way to do this?

Maybe an add on can do this, however there are also third party tools that do this: http://www.internetmarketingninjas.co.../trace-control-redirect-paths/
