try this instead of your submit button:
<INPUT TYPE="Button" VALUE="Submit" onClick="if(this.value == 'Submit')
{this.value = 'Please Wait.';this.disabled=true;this.form.submit();}" />
If you're running CF7 or later and CFForm, you can also use
<cfinput name="whatever" type="submit" validate="SubmitOnce" />
Fair warning, both of these methods require that the user has JavaScript
activated.
