This may be more of an FYI but I thought I ought to mention it.
I recently Installed Netscape 6 and have been posting without a problem for a
couple of days now. Today this message was posted as a duplicate doing
something I have done with Netscape 4.7 without a problem in the past.
What I did was I posted the origional message then I used the "Back" button to
go back to news.lugnet.com. I then, being my paranoid self forgot if I had
clicked post after previewing the message (this has bitten me more than once),
Clicked "Forward" to see the message confirmation page. Doing this seems to
have resubmitted the post using Netscape 6 where doing the same thing in
Netscape 4.7 did not result in a duplicate post.
