I too have noticed this in almost every game I observe on IGS. Exactly as Michael describes, although the prisoner count does not always rectify itself as the game progresses. Also sometimes when the game is ended the final board display will only show about half of the stones it should. FYI I am running the client on Win XP Pro.
