Just started to get the following message within the last 30 mins. All I'd done was buy something. Anyone know how to bypass it? Pardon our interruption...As you were browsing eBay, something about your browser made us think you were a bot. There are a few reasons this might happen:You're a power user moving through this website with super-human speed.You've disabled JavaScript in your web browser.A third-party browser plugin, such as Ghostery or NoScript, is preventing JavaScript from running. I'm running Win 11 and have tried all the following and none of these worked: 1. Clearing cache on my browser (chrome)2. Private browsing session on chrome3. Different browser (Edge and Firefox)4. Rebooting my router to force an IP address change 5. Using a different machine on my home network (Antix Linux running Firefox)6. Trying my Android phone on wifi Does it as soon as I hit the sign-in link. Obviously, I can log on to the community forum without any problem. The only way I have got in is switching my Android phone to mobile data - and that works.
