Do you have "cookies" enabled in your browser?  It sounds like a browser specific problem. I think the forum software writes information to your local system that captures last activity times so that it can change the display to show which posts are new since you were last logged on or since you last read them.  Sounds like it isn't able to store this information, so it thinks that there may have been new posts while you were creating your current post.

I get a similar error message if I am replying to a post and someone else really does post something while I am typing.  I get the warning message, but if I go ahead and hit yes or whatever the option is, it will post the message even though it warned me about there being newer posts.
