Bad idea.  Never couple solvent and ions separately.  This is well-documented in
the wiki and on this list.  I experienced a similar explosion problem long ago,
and it turned out that my ions accelerated and shot out of the system.  It
happened early in the simulation, so I don't know if that is your problem or
not, but in any case, you should definitely couple the solvent and ions
together, i.e. tc-grps = protein non-protein
