Rarely, but it happens with the forum engine we are using (YAF, or YetAnotherForum.NET). And it seems, this is related to some processes on the webserver in the Windows OS - one time it happens, but if you click the Post button again with the same message text, then all is ok.

If you know how to reproduce this problem, tell us.
