Had that happen as well. Way back already though..... hasnt come up since version 2.08 or any of the patches. To be honest, i probably just havent been online enough for that to occur.
Two outcomes: Either the game crashed shortly after, or i relogged to make it stop. Once it stopped on its own after 20 secs or so.
