PSN Online weird problem...

So at random my PS3 will pop up a little thing that says "You have been signed off the PSN Network. Another user has signed in with this name."... So I double checked my account, nothing wrong, no one has hacked me and been buying stuff with my info, I can't find anything odd.
It's not actually much of a bother unless I'm playing an online game, which is rare, but it's annoying to get kicked out of a game as I'm sure most of you can imagine.
I've done some google searching and haven't found anything...

Anyone ever have anything like this happen on any of the online systems? Should I be worried? I'm thinking maybe I will give Sony a call/email in the next few days when I have time... What do you guys think?

It certainly sounds like someone else is logging on using your username and password. That would definately concern me.

Thats what I thought as well, but wouldn't they be using my account to try and buy stuff (obviously, they can't but still, would that not be the end-goal)? If it is another person and not a fluke they aren't buying anything so what would they be doing?

I'd e-mail support and see if somehow duplicate user names were given out. Surest way to see if someone compromised your account is to change the password and see if it continues to happen.

I only have one downloaded PSN game... I don't even know if someone could do that...


I just went on my online thingie and changed my password, double checked my history... it's all me... maybe the password thing will do the trick.

Strange dude. Sorry I can't help you on this matter either.
Never had a problem with my PSN account. Although sometimes randomely I will get disconnected from wifi then put back on.

I used to have that problem with my old router, but it was a really old Lynksis router.
