I have a T1 connection, I had it happen to me occationally, maybe twice out of 100+ games. I don't know why. And its only when I host.

If your running a dedicated i would check your init file or it could be because when you live in far of places (UK) there can be serious lag problems because of the distance apart so it takes a while for the lag to kick into the game.I'm not 100 percent sure though.
