I noticed that too. That's just plain weird.

Just speculating

For a while, ebay search was not working. I had to manually remove the ".latest" or ".qa" substrings from the returned search results, before the browser could display the page.

It seems to be working OK now. We'll have to see if this problem comes back.

whew, I thought it was something just on my end. But the scans I ran showed/cleaned nothing but a few tracking cookies. Really, I did *not* break ebay . . . honest!

I had lots of trouble today too and am glad it works fine for me now.

I thought the problem was on my end so I disconnected all the computer parts and shut it down for a couple of hours. When I hooked everything back together and turned in on again, I still had trouble logging onto ebay by using the 'favorites' , so I finally entered from scratch and could search again.

Unfortunately, I had a few coins I was going to bid on but I couldn't log in fast enough and missed them. Too bad, as they all sold a lot lower than what I would have bid for them.

Anyone know if ebay was hacked?

Any one hear anything out of the normal for PAYPAL?

Scary stuff with all your personal info just floating around go there.

If they did experience a brute force attack on their servers I'm sure they'd keep it hush hush
