I vaguely remember hearing something about this, and there may be a patch
from Microsoft to address this, although a cursory glance at their site
didn't find it. You might also try "padding" your form by adding some
additional fields, which might be a kludgy workaround for data truncation
problems, or simply give in and put your form behind SSL, too.
