I have had this recurring problems with the forums. Sometimes, I go to hit the shift key, and I hit something else, I don't know what, and it makes IE go back to the previous page and I lose the reply I was typing. This has happened several times with lengthy posts, and it really pisses me off. I've done it Firefox too, but Firefox has the decency to cache the page, so I can hit the "forward" button and return to my previously typed text.

Either way, I'd like to know what button or button combination is causing this bullshit.

Just stop using IE, if Firefox caches the page...

I am not a fan of IE so I've never had the post-losing problem, but I have had the page go back on me suddenly while typing. I've been trying to figure out what it is too. Thank God for caching is all I can say.

Ditto on the issue. No idea what causes it.

Holding shift, but maybe tapping tab by accident and then pressing backspace could cause this to occur.

Pressing backspace when your cursor isn't in a textbox will send you to the previous page.
