Problems accessing ebay anyone?

I can't access any part of ebay this morning and wondered if anyone else is having the same problems. All I'm getting is server not found messages.
I've tried various pages I've got bookmarked, links from emails, ebay.co.uk, ebay.com and ebay.ie
Plus I've had no messages from them overnight which isn't normal.
I can get Paypal,s home page but can't go any further
Other sites are working OK.
Any suggestions as to why and how to get round it?

    I can only suggest the usual, log out and reboot. I have been ebaying this morning (page still open actually) and all is well here.

    Don't forget the routine maintenance on Friday morning, maybe only certain servers go down at one time?

  • I'm back too
    As other people were having problems too, on the basis that if they are giving me grief, I should give them some. I gave in and rang ebay.

    They said there wasn't a problem, asked me to clear cookies etc. I use a mac and could remeber how to, so while I tried to work out hw to do that, he went to check with someone else that there wasn't anything going on that he didn't know about.
    When he came back he asked me to try again and low and behold ebay appeared!
    Only they hadn't done anything their end and I hadn't done anything this.
