Recent change! Cannot use paypal via the private window that appears on ebay when trying to login. I can login to paypal direct. I've via Mozillas privacy and security options allowed paypal.com and co.uk in my cookies, block pop ups and add ons. I can use paypal on ebay via microsoft explorer. I've spent over one hour trying to solve, I'm moderately computer literate but am quite irked and close to installing chrome. Any solutions welcome. Thanks

By "private window" do you mean a Private Browsing Window?

If that's the case, you may not be able to use it in Private Browsing Mode because the content blocking settings are stricter in that mode.

Also, if you are using Ebay in a regular window and the PayPal screen is appearing in a Private Browsing Window for some reason, that won't work because a private window and regular window cannot communicate with each other.
