Is anyone else having their tasks fail after just a few minutes due to a failure to contact the CMS-Factory? It's happening increasingly for me, but 've not seen it for a few other volunteers I've studied -- and no-one else is complaining at the moment!

I'm having some real problems with a new security regime at my institution, so this could possibly be a manifestation of that.

I have over 100 Valids in a row but did just get this a few minutes ago
