well, at our site the last thing the deleted users did was to read a new post. During their U_TempRead field was updated the record was corrupted. This started after our provider did a MySQL update. It's curious that your problem comes from the ubb.threads version update.
At the moment everything is fine again since several days, but we'll have to keep an eye on this problem...
