Strange random teleports then freezing

I have noticed recently that I can be doing just about anything, when all of a sudden I get the teleporting screen with a very slow moving progress bar (although I did not attempt to teleport anywhere). The progress bar never produces a failed teleport message, it just seems to go slower and slower so it looks like it would never reach the other side, or even half-way. I then press the Cancel button, and I am at the same place as before, but I cannot walk or fly. If I use the left and right arrows I can turn on the spot, but not move forwards, backwards, or fly. I have tried getting rid of animations, tried teleporting to a known good place, tried all sorts to enable me to walk again. All have failed, and i have to relog.

These ghost teleports are happening more and more. Anyone else had this happen to them?

Oh yes. This is a rather unusual form of annoyance in SL for me. It happens for no reason or if I've teleported some where and it does it again. Only thing to do is to log out.

Yes this is very irritating and I have no idea why LL gave us this "feature". The only cure is to relog.
