eBay Hangup

I can login to site, »www.ebay.com , but when going to My eBay (top right), I get

Firefox can't find the server at my.ebay.com.

I'll try Sunday morning...its the "my" is where the issue is, I think.

After rebooting computer last night, and booting up computer this morning, ebay site worked fine.

Must have been a Waterfox/OS glitch...I've experienced this before, some months ago...so I guess the solution is to reboot computer.

Footnote - Interesting, when FireFox (WaterFox) is closed, I have it set to clear cache, cookies, along with another program to eliminate LSO cookies.

Last night, I tried ebay site after closing out WaterFox, but it did not work.

I should have tried

ipconfig /flushdns

»technet.microsoft.com/en ··· %29.aspx

but didn't. I suspect issue was in OS's resolver cache.

Microsoft notes - "Although the ipconfig command is provided for earlier versions of Windows, the /flushdns option is only available for use on computers running Windows 2000, Windows XP, or Windows Server 2003 operating systems."

So apparently, Microsoft felt there was a need for this command.
