IE6 and E-Bay

[Guest]

I'm running IE6 w/SP2 on Windows XP and up until yesterday all as fine. Now
when I try to access my ebay at ebay.com a message posts " Internet Explorer
has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the
inconvenience" After I send the error msg IE closes. No error codes are
displayed w/ the msg. No other secure site, bank, brokerage, mail, etc.
causes this. I fired up my old computer with Windows 98 and all ebay
functions accessed perfectly. Has anyone had similar problems or can anyone
offer suggestion(s)?

could it be a problem with a flash/shockwave banner advert on the ebay site
..... ive had IE crash on me before because of a corupt flash installlation
????

I called McAfee and they hinted it was most likely a firewall problem they
were fixing soon. Also called MS and they said it may be a "cascading style
sheet" problem that they knew about and were correcting with next service
pack. Who knows?? I shut everything down again, reloaded firewall and problem
went away!
