Disconnecting without reason - Syrus - 10-10-2010

It's less of a help request, more a question...
So, I had this happen to me at least twice by now...

I undock, and suddenly I read "[my.ship.name] is activating cloaking device bla bla". Just the message you see when someone disconnects.
But in my case, I did neither F1, nor disconnect. I just undocked, and flew around for some seconds and all of a sudden, it says I'm cloaking.

I still get messages from the server, so I'm still connected.
But after some time (the amount of time it takes for a ship to disappear after using F1), I get disconnected. Just like I was kicked, but without such message.

So, what's this about? Why does this happen?
Any idea how to prevent this from happening?

Glitches server side? Had the same thing happen to me once as well.

Could be server related. Still it's nothing good. You undock, there's a fight and suddenly you start cloaking without doing anything that would cause that to happen. The good thing is, you are loged in until you are disconnected and disappear, so no one can kill you during that time, since you are still moving like normal. And you can log in without having to wait...

But it's still very strange...
