Yup.

Happening here too. (Opera 11, Windows 7)

I just ignore it, even though the page freezes, the message still gets posted.

This is still happening with IE. It's not open to me to change to another browser, it's not my system.

Thanks folks - we'll ask Tech to take a look, in the mean time you could always try a different browser such as Chrome or Firefox.

It happened on IE10 last year and I reverted to IE9 to cure the problem. Now we have the same problem with IE9.

Thanks everyone - can you tell us what you're using to post and we'll get Tech to look into this.

I have this too, if I refresh the page then my post has been posted but I have to refresh the page first otherwise i just get the weird message. It just started yesterday

I tried to post twice on the Winterbourne thread, but what I wrote didn't appear either time.
I don't want to post again incase they all appear and the OP thinks I am obsessed with her.
