We have seen this behaviour with impatient users and with the
Opera webbrowser. This browser resubmit request with no answer
after some time. Best way to fix this type of problem is to use
a semaphore. Just set a marker in a file that the process is
running and check the file before you start the process.
Not very elegant but its working.

Long running processes are always a problem in a web
application.
