This is the NOT the first time this has happened either? Buggy AS code?

I had the same thing happen on another server yesterday ... it sometimes occurs when you simultaneously request two WUs.

It's a safety feature that prevent a single donor from depleting a server with to many requests from his clients (imagine someone with thousands of clients starting simultaneously).

You don't have to worry about this, you'll get credit for both WU.

Sorry about the cross post
Was not sure where to put the post?

Yes strange that this is a recurring problem, I would have thought once the AS decided to send out a work unit , it then doesn't decide to send the same work unit out again to somebody else in this case another PC in my farm, it must handle MANY simultaneous requests not just from my computers but from other users as well. Is this doubling up of sending out work a common problem coz this is the second time that I happened to notice this...?
