     <snip> I'm using IE5, and I'm only clicking once. I get a 500 error (internal server) when I submit ... but it doesn't happen when I reply to messages, only when I start a new thread.

BTW, your message (the one I'm replying to) seems to have come (...) (25 years ago, 12-Aug-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.admin.general)

     (...) Fraser, I'm not sure yet exactly what's going on, but I'm sure it will certainly turn out to be Yet Another Horrible Bug in MS Look Out! -- because Microsoft products, as a general rule, suck and are evil.
