    In fairness, I had this problem a couple of times when I first started here. This forum can be a little slow to respond after the submit button is pressed, and I remember assuming I had timed out. So I resubmitted and voila, double post.

    My name is Hopester, and it's been eight months since my last double post.

    You need to have a NIC to even have an address.
