OOPS Tim, looks like you quoted that URL wrong http://bobby.watchfire.com
I am getting auto redirects when I log in with cast.org address from Opera and IE.

...If you have provided Bobby links on your pages to check for accessibility,
they all have to be changed now.
bobby.cast.org now goes to bobby.worldfire.com and instead of just
forwarding requests, they drop them back to the main page.
The syntax hasn't changed, just the hostname:
http://bobby.watchfire.com/bobby/bobbyServlet?advanced=true&;URL=http://yourhostnamehere.tld/

You are getting redirected to http://bobby.watchfire.com yes, but if you
had a link to
http://bobby.cast.org/bobby/bobbyServlet?advanced=true&;URL=http://yourhostname
here.tld/
The auto redirect could bring you to
http://bobby.watchfire.com/bobby/bobbyServlet?advanced=true&;URL=http://yourhostname
here.tld/
but instead it just throws you to http://bobby.watchfire.com which means
that everyone has to update their validation links
