Anyone know how to turn this stupid thing off?

Are you sure you want to close this tab?

Other than a possible hidden default, you can't. However in this case, it's a bug. Report it to Apple.

I never got the messages before. It was the last Safari upgrade that caused it.

It's a bug? Is anyone else getting the same message?

Yes, it's a new feature of Safari 3. It's designed to warn you when you're closing a window with a text box that you have unsubmitted text entered. It's a bug in this case because you have submitted the text when you click "Post Quick Reply" but Safari isn't detecting that. Yes, others are getting it since it been discussed here in the Safari 3 thread.

I didn't know it had been previously posted. I did a search for Safari and didn't see anything on the first page. I guess I should have looked back farther.
