Windows help suggests you empty your browser's cache and try again. Did that with no success.

Gave up on the post and tried posting on another topic. No problem after that.

I learned to STOP re-trying. The worst part is that there's no way to easily recover what I typed. It's gone forever.

A few times I tried to re-create my reply... only to get the "403" error again... and to have my message zapped again.

Why bother?

So whenever it happens, I just move on. It's not worth my time to try and work with with a web server that it determined to defeat me. So I "let it win"... yay!
