Sounds to me like either
a) Your hostname changed. Kill the X server then log back in and
everything should be okay.
b) You IP address changed. This shouldn't be a problem because X
normally uses hostnames, not IPs. Still, the solution is to kill the X
server and log back in.

Less likely, something is corrupting your .Xauthority file. Or something
is setting $XAUTHORITY to an incorrect value.
