This has been happening on and off to ALL of us for months, so it has 
nothing to do with our local computers/browsers/connections/etc....it's 
system instability, and it's being watched and documented at the Forums, 
as Wazoo indicated.

In fact, there was a total shutdown for some minutes today (Saturday, 
Dec. 3) that caused the same behaviour, in addition to some interesting 
errors from intermediate servers, such as:

An error occurred while processing your request.
Reference #97.bbfb746.1133641925.ae63253 

and:

Gateway Timeout
The proxy server did not receive a timely response from the upstream 
server.

Reference #1.12bfb746.1133641841.42d6a15 

Even though many of us accept and have even "protected" our SC cookies, 
it seems that the server problems cause FireFox to "forget" the 
memorized userid/password (login) information. I've seen it happen many 
times, and this isn't happening with *any* other sites I log in to.
