Plus I sent them another snippy email, suggesting they fire some of their web developers.  :D




Unless ebay is changing to the new beta permanently, then I would, for those who do not have the "opt out" selection, I would demand to have the pre beta style put back in place or threaten to close your ebay account. If ebay refuses, then I would do everything in my power to cause ebay as much discomfort as humanly possible. And yes, there are ways to do this. Just use your imagination.

To completely purge your browser files I would recommend a handy little utility called CCleaner.

http://www.ccleaner.com/

Removes temporary files, cookies, URL history, autocomplete information, index.dat files, etc.

Works with Internet Explorer, Firefox and Opera (no Safari version).

It is free. Alternatively, you can obtain another free utility from the Major Geeks website called Dial-A-Fix that purges browser files.
