I am not 100% of that but I think when you enter a wrong URL format in the admin menu for your forum, this can happen...  Or it can be just a timeout... do you get the error all the time?

It sounds like an IE 500 internal server error, not the 404 page not found.

Try turning off friendly HTTP error messages in IE to get the actual error message.

However, usually such crashes when posting and the post still goes through are due to incorrect email settings. Try disabling the email options from the admin area.

I believe that there was a bug that coursed this in an older version.

Download and install the latest version 7.8 on your server.

You would need to replace all the files, then check with the person who wrote the Swedish translation if they have a Swedish language pack that works with version 7.8.

If you are running older versions than 7.8 you should upgrade IMMEDIATLY to the latest version as a security flaw was found in the code in previous versions that would allow a hacker to comprimise your forum!!!
