One option is to put a capacitor between the common and e stop pin going into the pc (about 0.1uf I think), the other is to put a dwell in the Mach3 config screen (I think its called interval debounce?), try setting a figure higher than the default of 0, I have a figure of 3000 to get rid of false external e stops with a cap across the e stop input pins too.
I hope that helps you, good luck.
Cheers, Andrew.
