There are a number of threads in the mailing list archive about this. A fairly recent one can be found at: http://www.gromacs.org/pipermail/gmx-users/2007-February/025797.html I believe that deals with a similar problem, based on what you've described. If you're applying periodic boundary conditions (pbc = xyz) in your .mdp file, then there shouldn't be anything wrong with the simulation. Search the archives for more information.
