    Are you using IE as a browser, ?
    Are the number lock or caps lock keys are off.

    Try this, download firefox . youll have to google that as I cannot post a line to it . .mozilla-europe.org
    there maybe something in the cookies cache on your old computer, using a different browser will sort that problem

    Firefox download link

    no idea how to remove the block. If already using firefox you could try opera or IE which will already be in the computer. Have you already started to use the computer eg have you stored pictures, documents on there yet as you could (as a last resort mind) do a reinstall of xp(or vista, 7)

    Hi,thanks for reply ,im on ie as browser
    I found
    signin.ebay. com / ws/ blocked
    ebay/sap.d11?signina blocked

    some were on control panel and i think it may have been internet options then privecy settings or one of them,i cant seem to find it now,but I am really uneducated with computers
    I havent really saved much on the p.c yet,nothing i would mind losing anyway,I would prefare to get this fixed
    thanks again for ideas,I will try and down load firefox

    I think ive messed up with firefox, there was a choice of settings one a custom one and another one that was recommended for beginners which i chose and then it came up that cookies were being transfered from IE ,i think this may be why i still cant use paypal on ebay

    Having cookies shouldn't make any difference to an Ebay sign in.

    Using Firefox, click on Tools which is just above the address bar, click options, then privacy. When the menu shows click on Show Cookies then Remove All Cookies. Try to sign into Ebay again.

    If you're still having problems then I would suggest you download, run and install Malwarebytes Antimalware just in case you've got any nasties lurking. If it finds anything then post a log here.
