This message comes up if you back-up to a page that has input fields
(form data) in it which are POST-ed to the server for processing. The
warning you see comes from a HTTP-message from the server you are
connected to, telling you in a rather cryptical way that it is not
certain that the page you want to access still contains the entered
data, and/or there is a risk of sending the same data to the server
again. The latter could become a problem, since communication usually
goes to a session on the server which probably has been terminated
already. So then there is no way to tell what would happen to the data
you are sending. Note that you would not crash the server with something
like that.
