If you can create the smallest version of your code that exhibits this problem 
and post it to the list, perhaps we can help.  Obviously, you'll want to fix 
the problem rather than implement a periodic reset.

Here's how you can initiate a power up clear (PUC) reset for an msp430 based 
mote like the TMote Sky:

void puc()
{
  WDTCTL = ~WDTPW;
}

You can read more about this in the Msp430 User's Guide, available from 
www.ti.com/msp430.
