redirect default.aspx within default.aspx url

I have my default page load function written. But I want to redirect to the default page again. so for instance:
default.cs file
Page-Load
{
if (something) 
 do something
 then redirect("default.aspx");
}


But in IE, when it's redirected, it does call the page_load event again. I want it to call the page_load even again as a new URL. IT works fine in firefox, but not IE. Are tehre any other method to redirect? I tried server.transfer, but that call doesn't act like default.aspx as a new URL.
