Google Indexing a Redirected Page

My site has lost 60% of previously cached pages in the G index, and our index page is no longer cached. Another site with a fairly high PR6 has linked to my site using an immediate redirect to our index page url, causing the Google cache to recognize their page as our index page(which has now dropped from a PR6 to PR4 and has been online for 2+ years).

We have asked this site to either link to us without a redirect, or simply take that link offline without response. We have also tried to contact their host company, and submit a redirect removal to google without success. Can anyone recommend action steps for something like this?

The site links to us from their site off their root domain as such:
[their-site.com...]

and the redirect code for our_site_index.html file extension is:
<!DOCTYPE html
PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html><head><title></title>
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0; URL=http://www.our-site-index.com/">
</head>
<body> </body>
</html>

Producing an immediate redirect to our index page, and the appearance that this is our site index page in the google index.
Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
