I went to surf on ebay today and every auction I went to had this message: This web page at vi.ebaydesc.com has been reported as a web forgery and has been blocked based on your security preferences.

I was surfing ebay yesterday and everything was fine. I am wondering why this is?

In "Tools", "Options", "Security", I unclicked "Block reported web forgeries" so that now I can see the descriptions on eBay. However, Mozilla needs to get this figured out so that it's not necessary to do this in order to see the eBay descriptions.

yeah same thing for me guys I wonder what the heck is going on? the only thing *I* did new today was update my Flash program for my machines only because when in 'Facebook' it was requiring me to do so to post like 'youtube' videos on my profile........but yeah....not sure if that has anything to do with any of this of course......but yep, that's the only thing I've done 'differently' today, as far as computer operation goes. I wonder what is causing this?

in ol' 'internet explorer' it works fine of course so there's obviously something going with with good ol' freakin firefox here.........I guess I can disable those function like you guys said.....but it just kind of sucks when you are actually a 'SELLER' on eBay, as I am :) ...so if this is just a universal problem that has just started recently, then about half of the shoppers will be immediately turned away! hahaha .....not good mozilla! what's up!?..........

It's fixed - crisis over - eBay works again with Firefox. Restore that altered setting and surf on!
