damn, I would think Ebay would do a better job on handling this problem a lot sooner, if it was known in February !

Doesn't surprise me. They seem more interested in maximizing fees, and redesigning the site pages every two months.

Well I bought a camera on ebay two days ago and was asked to sign in twice, through different sites. When I refused the second sign-in, I proceeded normally with the transaction. So to my knowledge this infection is still going on. Changed the password twice since, just to be sure.

Rather than eliminate the use of Flash and Javavscript - Ebay went the Whack-a-mole route.

Thanks for posting this BBC story.
