Sorry if this email doesn't get sucked into the original thread. The previous two replies didn't show up in my inbox. I had to find them at gossamer-threads. Hopefully the list admin can associate this post with the original thread (was started Nov 17, 2008, 6:18 AM).
Anyway, yes nasa hit the nail on the head. That is exactly the case...
I will just make a php script that removes duplicates from my database and put it into cron until the official fix comes out I guess.
