Oh Matt, FYI--you know I had similar issues about a year ago. I found that it was my security settings--both on my browser organically and with security extensions, and my firewall settings.

I forgot what I loosened up, but I think it was related to persistent cookies, referrals, caches etc. Not sure but I did figure out it was on my side. I also was forcing https-only--and that is not a good option because the site drops in and out of https, even sometimes when setting a lineup or making a draft list for instance.

And when that happened, I would lose the connection which gives an error like you were never connected, maybe because it lost its encryption continuity. But if the site goes back to an https connection quickly enough, you may still be able to connect without logging back in. If too long, then you may have to re-log in.

Clear as mud, I know. No answer here, just a similar symptom.

For a couple of days when I tried to log in to Strat, it kept saying that my connection wasn't secure and someone might be trying to steal my information. I changed my password and cleared all my browser data, seems to be working fine now.
