Would someone let us all know when the Windows XP mess has been fixed?! I'm canceling the auction launches I was going to do next week in anticipation that it won't be fixed yet.

Roadsmith, what fixes for windows XP?

I have Windows XP Pro and nothing is different for me when I launch auctions.

Tonimar, the glitch is on the Search broken thread. It affects the buying experience at eBay, not the listing. For those of us with XP, Service pack 2 -- eBay doesn't let us navigate using the back button when searching and looking at items. Major inconvenience for affected buyers..

Thank You pixiamom, I did notice that when I was searching for items to buy and I couldn't figure out what was wrong. I thought maybe it was my computer so I did a lot of maintenance on it, more then normal and in the process I mistakenly deleted all my picture folders so now I'm left with only one picture folder........thats how long it took for me to realize what the computer was doing after I pressed "yes"........lol

So I lost thousands of pictures, but I could do a restore to get them all back but then I will have to take back other things that I really don't want and start over cleaning things up so I figured all the auction pictures I lost are in the listing program I use so everything should be fine.

And, A word of Advice.......Never work on cleaning your computer when your feeling tired.........lmao

Classic - I only use firefox and I still can't use the back button. This only happens on eBay and a few heavily animated sites. When I go to look at page history after a search- the current page shows five or 6 times- I think it's due to the d#%& animated ad at the top of the page.

I do a daily search on eBay Motors. About a week ago I noticed that I couldn't back out of a listing. No big deal, I just work around it.

I had the problem yesterday when searching. It created the page about 20 times in my History. So, I just used open in a new page to open anything in the Search.

Today, I am not having that problem. Very strange.
