RE: WWWHHHYYY
No, every once in a while I get it too...
You read teh posts, and decide to answer. You 'post reply, and start typing away. You get carried away, but the info is precise, and well worth the effort, You double check teh spelling, and then hit 'OK'
the screen then sits there, only to get an error message, and you then discover the server (or whatever) timed out, and you get a generic 'page not found' error, and all the info you just typed is now lost....
I've had it happen a few times, and I expect it's once or twice been blocked / lost because someone was posting to the same thread at the same time...

I've this happen to me too on occasions. Of course Murphy's law applies here in that it only ever happens when you've typed in a page long detailed reply to a query....
If you remember to do it, a quick cntrl C can help out by saving your post to a buffer. Then you can just paste your reply back in if you lose it...
