Dictionary attacks with pre-generated lists of hashes will be useless for the same reason - the attacker will now have to recalculate their entire dictionary for every individual account they're attempting to crack.

So even though they would know the random hash it doesn't matter, you've added an N to the calculation so instead of 1 dictionary for 100 users they would need 100 dictionaries(1 dict * 100 users) for the attack and that is assuming they have access to your DB and know your random salt string.

$c = $_GET['counter'];
$c++;
echo '<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" content="1;URL=page.php?counter"'.$c.'>';
