What version of midas is this? Run the odbedit "ver" command please. Also which
browser on what OS is this? (chrome->about google chrome, firefox->about firefox).

The current versions of midas do not reload the status page ever, and I think
all the page-reload code has been removed and they cannot reload automatically.

Old versions of the midas status page were designed to reload every 60 seconds or so.
The reload interval is adjustable, but I do not think it was stored in ODB. It was
accessed from the status page "config" button and I think it stored the reload
period is a browser cookie.

This reload value may have gotten confused, and in this case, to fix it,
you can try to clear all the web cookies from the web page. Another test for this
would be to try an alternate web browser, which would presumable not have the bad cookie
and will not suffer from the reload problem.

You can also open the web page debugger (google chrome -> right click menu -> inspect ->> 
console & etc) and see if anything shows up there. I think you can set a break point
on the page reload function and catch the place that causes the reload.
