How exactly is the browser dumping data into a table? Via a form
submission handled by a CGI program or the like?

If you're doing a form submission, do you see multiple entries for
IE in the web server's access logs?

We'd need more information to say for sure. Can you tell us more
about the path from the browser to the database? Have you tried
to simplify the problem, i.e., create the smallest possible test
case that exhibits the undesirable behavior? Sometimes that means
writing a separate program that isn't useful to your application
per se, but that eliminates the irrelevant factors so you can focus
on what matters.
