Is anyone else having a problem seeing the actual parts listed in the Ebay auctions under the "Shopping" tab? I can view the seperate headings but nothing on individual auctions. I get a message of check settings/can't find server. Worked fine until about a week ago, it could be on my end also with a firewall update but haven't found a cause as of yet.

Hey Capt'n,
I just tried the eBay Auctions and they worked just fine for me (don't ya hate it when that happens!
). I'd suggest investigating the new firewall you mentioned and if that doesn't pan out send an e-mail to the 'Support Gang' via the 'Contact Us' page. The more info you can send about the problem will help in trying to sort it out.

No problems here either. 

The only thing I can think of is what program you are using. Netscape or Internet Explorer should work fine. Some others may not.

Thanks for checking guys, using IExplorer 6 and Xp Prof. Very odd as its worked all along until recently. It's not the firewall as turning it off has no change. My next call is to SBC dsl as their browser intergrates with XP. I'll keep checking.

Of course, it is working fine for me too.
A couple of suggestion I have for you:
1) Make sure if you have a Pop-Up blocker that you either disable it, or usually holding down the Control Key on your keyboard while clicking the Ebay Item link (C3 Emblems, for example) will allow the new page to come up.
2) Make sure you have cookies enabled for C3VR.com, C3VetteRegistry.com, Ebay.com, and mediaplex.com
Let us know if you find out what the problem was!

Did you try to hold down the ctrl key as you try to open?

All cookies are being accepted. Pop up blocker is disabled and firewall is not an issue but still can't get through. Clicking "shopping" gets me the main screen in the orig. window, clicking on "body" gets me the second page in orig. window. Clicking on "emblem" opens a new window which states page unavailable/check lan settings and in the top Blue bar states cannot find dns server. Sbc tech support was no help on this issue. Thanks for the input guys.
Forgot to mention that the control key has no effect either.
