When I get that message, its not due to any links or attachments(for me, anyway). I don't recall having attachments or links in any replies that threw the message(but removing them would be something I would try). I have tried doing a COPY, open the thread in a new tab, PASTE the reply=same error. Also tried opening a different browser but that worked one time out of a dozen or more. The only thing that works SOMETIMES is to cut part of the reply, and if that allows the post to go thru, I will paste the rest of the text in another reply(PITA, but works sometimes). And sometimes I just give up and hope someone else has the same advice
