IE 6.0 had improved its user experience by dropping its glass hour
(the waiting cursor) in IE 5.0 when a user is in the middle of a submission.
Thus IE 6.0 opens up the possibility for a user to submit more than one
request without pressing the Stop button - this is where it confuses me.

In your submit button with javascripts 'this.form.submit()', you could try
to change it to 'this.form.submit(); return false;' then the default submit
might be disabled.
