error messages

I keep getting an error message when I click on View New Posts. Comes up saying "Sorry, the board administrator has enabled search flood control. Please wait at least 20 seconds before trying again."

 

Am I doing something wrong???

I'm getting error messages when I try to do a search and I never used to.

no it is a set up thing on many boards to stop spamming

I get it too sometimes - just mutter at it and then try again later ...

Some people are so addicted to this forum that they want to check for new posts here every few seconds. This error is a way of stopping that from happening, and preventing precious (and expensive!) bandwidth from being wasted, by ensuring people wait at least 20 seconds before checking again.

I do understand that and we have ordered new mouse for computer so that could be part of problem today, but this has also happened when I've just came back on to the forum. Not to worry, I just wondered if it was something I was doing wrong, obviously it isn't, its the darned mouse.

The mouse/hardware won't cause errors to forums,unless it's because accidentally clicking twice on posting,not used to the feel of it,and messing an action up etc..
