Ebay and Firefox

[johnnie]

I'm curious if anyone here using Firefox has a hard time getting on Ebay. I don't use Ebay much, but some of the people at the office are having a hard time getting on. I had most people install Firefox because I was sick of cleaning up their computers, but some stayed with I.E.
So I just was asked about Ebay again and I wondered if maybe it was a Ebay with Firefox problem.
When you try to get on w/ Firefox, it tried to go to ebaystatic.com.
Anyone else experiencing this?

1. use firefox and mozilla in our home and we simply cannot sign on to ebay

at all. Sent for my password again to make sure that wasn't the problem. It will not take it. It will not let us set up a new account. Glad I am not ebay addicted, but there are times I would like to use it.

3. They can get on w/ Internet Explorer

Use that..if you dare..lol.

14. Nope. We pulled that cancerous POS off the computer

I will live without the few sites stupid enough to insist one uses IE! As more and more go to other browsers, they will wise up or go under.

4. I just tried it

and it worked fine for me.

BTW... I am very upset that I was outbid for my 1 GB memory card!

5. try this forum, Mozilla Firefox Support Forum

http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=38&sid=587a0a620e6659e7f3df515c74f15993

You may find someone with the same problem, or someone can tell you which niggling little setting is messed up...

6. Thanks

I'm just looking in to it for some people here at work. But I will give that a shot.

8. If a company network, may have more to do with firewall config - which

just totally maxed out my technical knowledge. I get on fine with FireFox, I'd look at the forum suggested.

11. Exactly... it's a fireWALL issue, not a fireFOX issue

Sounds like the company has blocked connections to e bay under the banner of "unauthorized use of company resources." Some Repuke owned companies would even block DU under the same justification.

15. So

They block it for users of Firefox and not of Internet Explorer?

On edit:
A lot of people at the forum mentioned above have been having the same problem.

9. no problems for me

I wouldn't use Firefox if I couldn't use it w/ ebay. How would I buy my useless crap then?

10. no problems here n/t

12. I can't use my banks bill pay with Firefox

I can get into my account fine, select the bills I'm paying, but it won't let me pay them. I just switch over to IE for that.

13. You might be able to find an answer on the forum suggested above

I found a hell of a lot of people with the Ebay problem, but no one seemed to have the answer.

16. Nope, no problems with Firefox and Ebay

or Firefox and anything else, for that matter
