Sometimes a player randomly appear with name .

You can't see messages coming from this player, but if you know the correct character name you still can whisper him.

If this player join a BG and someone open the scoreboard, his client freezes.

Everything seems ok in the DB, and if you restart the server the player name problem disappear.

The first ocurrence I catch of this problem happened at 15th October 2011, then I thought it was an isolated case but recently it is becoming much more frequent.
