Once you get there, if there really was a problem with your account, they would go from there. eBay has no right to shut down your account when they didn't warn you through a reliable method -- and no, e-mail IS NOT reliable. If you enter the URL yourself, you shouldn't be worried. Unless there's been a MAJOR DNS hack, you'll end up at the right place. -- PHP rocks! "Knowledge is Power. Power Corrupts.
