Anyone else have problems posting? re: error messages

[maveric]

This is what I was getting for about 30 minutes:

"The page you requested cannot be displayed.
WARNING! Your post was not successful. This is caused by our server being unable to validate the cookie on your computer which allows you to post. Common causes for this are:

1) You have another browser window open, which you either opened while posting and/or browsed around DU while posting and/or posted a different message on DU while composing this message.
2) Your browser and/or security software (such as anti-virus, firewall or anti-spyware) is set to block cookies from DU, or sees cookies from DU as a "threat" and deletes or quarantines them. Check your settings.
3) Your cookies from DU somehow got corrupted. Try deleting your DU cookies, closing your browser, and logging back into DU if this problem persists.

Below is the text of your message. You will have to start your post all over again, and copy the text into the new post."

Was this just me or did anyone else have this problem?

1. I think the net just burped !

Either that , or all that NSA spying is sucking up all the bandwidth !

[Rabrrrrrr]

2. Yep - every post I have to post twice.

I even logged out and back in a few times, closed down the browser, etc. And I'm still having to post everything twice.

write my post - post it - get error message - hit "back" button - post it again.

6. Yes, I've gotten it about 3 times

so far.

Unless there's been an upgrad to my Zone Alarm that I didn't know about. :shrug:

But, I've been able to backspace to the previous screen and my message has been intact and DU takes it the second time.

Visions of my being banned were floating through my head.

[CatholicEdHead]

10. IE works but not Firefox

any luck with Safari or Opera?

[remfan]

13. I got in with Safari

and then started Firefox while Safari/DU was open, and then could post in Firefox.

[EstimatedProphet]

11. Yup

Every time I post. I have to post twice to get it through.

[auntAgonist]

15. Takes two attempts to post anything.

I use Mozilla; haven't tried to see if I get the problem with IE or not.

[kainah]

[Ptah]

17. It took me five tries, one reboot, deletion of cookies

to post my thoughts to RevCheesehead.

I was near panic.

[B Calm]
