Has anyone else had recent problems with Ebay and all of the changes they are making? It seems that when I go to bid on something, it will go one of three different ways; the old confirm screen, a pop up box, or a side box. My biggest problem is that when it does the pop up box, it takes foreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeever to load and I have missed out on a bunch of things by not getting my last minute bid in on time.
I also have noticed that since Ebay has been making these changes that my computer is running very slow. When I pull up the task manager, it shows the explorer window for ebay running at over 200,000 K memory usage with over 400,000 K virtual memory. (I don't know jack about computers, but have compared and that's like 10 times as big as other normal pages). Does anyone know if this is because if all of the "extra" crap that they put onto a page for you (similar items, others by seller, etc.)? I have DSL and it seems like Ebay is the only site that I have any problems with.
I have considered getting a bid snipe service, but am wondering if they may be having the same problems with the slow page loading or pop up bid boxes.
Thanks for any help you computer gurus can offer on this. I wish they would have left well enough alone..
Thanks, John
