players "freezing" the game??? -

I run a small dedicated server and over the last couple days I have encountered two players who have some how "froze" the game play. One of the 2 times this resulted in the server completely crashing. Before you call me paranoid or reply with the standard "nothing like this exists" response, consider that both times it happened the offending players made threats about freezing or "messing up" the server immediately before it happened. Others were also present at the time, so this can be verified. If anyone has experienced this and has any information about this exploit, specifically what it does and how it maybe damaging to my machine or network (or if there is any way to prevent it!) please contact me via PM. I agree these things do not need to be discussed in public. Sorry to have to make a post like this (when there are so many CHEAT posts lately) but I need information about this matter.
