if today isn't yesterday, reload now!

I need some input here. It is very clear to me why http://www.milanrecords.com/ is constantly reloading in Opera, it's because of the following statement:
if (window.history.current != window.history.previous)
window.location.reload();
which is literally telling the browser "if this page is not the same as the previous page you visited, then reload".
The big question is: why did someone write that? Is it meant as a sort of "back button disabler" script? What browser are they targetting anyway? Because Opera gets stuck in a loop, FireFox throws an exception and in IE6 both properties are undefined?? I won't understand the purpose of this code even if I think about it while today is different from yesterday..
