I believe you are saying that the server is showing a work unit which you never received. We call them "ghost" work units. They are pretty rare. It basically means the server thinks it has sent you something but your client doesn't think it ever received it.

BOINC is designed to handle the situation with no intervention required. There is nothing you can do on your computer to avoid such ghosts.
