mass-posting issue with ibForum

Earlier today, I was surfing the forums at www.merchantguild.net through the PHProxy page at proxy.tokyotosho.com. Logging in worked fine, but when I attempted to post, the post was re-sent over 228 times over, in addition to the original, intended post. The MG forum, which is an InvisionBoard (v1.1 BETA 4), was quickly shut down to make sure any impact was minimized, and that stopped the flow of posts. This would seem to be a significant problem, and I hope that this report is detailed enough to help address it. If there is further information that you need, please feel free to contact me at speaker59@yahoo.com.

The PHProxy version used at proxy.tokyotosho.com is the
first release. There have been two updates after that
release. Perhaps you should try again with that forum using
an up-to-date PHProxy. I'll look into the IB code.

I have a serious issue with users using phproxy on my site
leading to mass-posting. I either need to know a way to
prevent this (site with 6 mill pageviews a week so there is
limitations to what i can do scriptvise/buffervise) or a way
to shut the users out, something i don't really want to do.
