I went up the URL until I got to the root http://www.stud.ifi.uio.no/
and got a page described as:

Institutt for informatikks studentserver

I don't read the language, but I'd say that last word is pretty clear
even to an English-speaker like myself.  I guess that "larsqa" is out
of school by now.  I get redirected to "lmariusg's" homepage before
getting the "Forbidden" error.

Bummer.
