detecting proxy settings and ebay

[RG]

Please can someone help......

For the last 3 days when I have logged onto the 'my ebay' page of ebay all I
get is a blank screen with 'detecting proxy settings' at the bottom. This
lasts for about minutes and then the page comes up telling me " The page
cannot be displayed
The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be
experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser
settings" . The strange thing is - this only happens when I'm trying to
access this page - all other websites work fine including other sections of
ebay's site, it's just the 'my ebay' page of ebay that has the problem.
Does anyone know what could be the problem here.

I am using IE v6

thanks
