I can not access E-Bay from an email link in their posts. Every other site and link works. I have dumped cookies, etc. E-Bay says the problem is on my end.

I also have the same problem within E-Bay. When I read a message from E=Bay or another member and try to click on a link I get "problems loading page". I have tried to copy link location, etc. No Help!

I can work around it most of the time, but it gets frustrating.

Hope someone can help. Thanks
