no there is no setting. This is becoming a common problem in my forum on drupal as well. users have a tendency to hit the submit button numerous times. After hitting submit maybe a stall screen needs to be implemented where a user isnt tempted to think that their submission isnt working.

This thread talks about the problem of accidentally hitting the submit button multiple times and has a solution. However if someone's using a script to submit multiple times on purpose for a potential DoS attack, I'm not sure of the solution there.

What you need to do is disable the button once it has been pressed one time.
