I've found it more ' stable ' mining in windows using mining_proxy and manually setting it to stratum2 or stratum3
no lost connections ( unless it's my side ) or other errors and setting either program ( mostly use GUIMiner ) to do local host and do it through the proxy my side to specific stratum instead of hopping.  STILL AN ISSUE ON STRATUM.bitcoin.cz as it shows ' shares ' not blocks in GUIMiner and nada for my account, when it starts showing " blocks " a rounded up 1/3 will show on the account page after 5 min ( unless the block completes, then they still go Poof! )

going to set back up to STRATUM.bitcoin.cz tomorrow to see if Slush has fixed this as it was an issue since the move and seems to not be resolved.  I highly recomend removing the IP/address for STRATUM.bitcoin.cz ( aka stratum 1 ) from your connect list for now an see if this resolves your issues people.

As always, any comments that are just side lines, cheap hacks on me perosonaly, not trying to help the pool, feel free to click my name and send me a message directly instead of just posting more and more 3 or so lines in the forums.  Thank you.

[EDIT]
PS got roughly .003 BTC in my wallet and would love to get in on that group buy..... looks like i'm going to miss it due to not even getting my first payout from Slush's yet.... feel free to donate  Wink
stratum, stratum2, stratum3 are pointing to the same IPs so it is just luck. They are randomly or ping time(Slush say that he will setup this) chosen for you.

Today I was testing if it is safe to go back to Slush and had problems losing connection to stratum and also that 16 minutes shares were not recorded but them appear in account. But strange enough only but once with stratum and once with stratum2. So it might be that stratum has diffident connection strategy as others.
