If you are running old code, then yes, a few years ago there was a windows bug that caused players to ghost on the server. It causes major log entries that can use up your hard drive quickly and also continues to use bandwidth and other odd stuff.

That bug has since been resolved along with a ton of other known bugs and exploits. Also, the recent memory leak fix makes a huge difference.
