A lot of times those processing screens are Javascript redirects on a
timer. Can you browse the web after sitting on the processing screen for
a bit?

If it's a standard compliant 302, Mozilla should follow it. Do you have
security ratcheted it up on it maybe?

Since BM is passing the destination in the URL, my guess is they are
trying to do the final redirect with Javascript and Konq's just not
following it. View source on the the processing page and see if there
isn't some timer code in there.
