    Are you using Chrome? That bug crops up when using Chrome on the Advanced Search page -- the user's email address or username is automatically being populated in the "Seller" field on the Advanced Search page. When that happens, go back to the Advanced Search page click on that Seller field and there should be an option to "remove" or "manage" your browser's saved form data to clear that particular field completely.

     

    The next time you sign in to eBay you will have to enter your password manually, but you should be able to save it again and still be able to search using the Advanced Search page without it being filled in there.

     

    If that does not work, try using a different browser for Advanced Searches.
