Usually this will happen if you use the "back" button on your browser after making the post, and you get back to the input page, and you hit "submit" again.

But with me when I have more then one ATDB window open & reply to different posts quickly it tells me that I can't post so soon after another one.
Payback is a bitch, but is fun to watch.

That is a feature to stop spammers posting large numbers of messages. I think the limit is 30 seconds.

The initial problem you had is most likely caused when you click Submit and you wait for a response from your ISP and the browser just sits there waiting. You click submit again and it works straight away. The initial submit also worked but your ISP did not respond to your browser indicating it did.
