Did you respond to any e-mails that appeared to be from E-bay?? - phishing scams?
You could possibly be a victim of "pharming" also. Virus is planted on your computer and when you type "www.ebay.com" in the address bar the virus is executed thus sending you to a phony site. Enter your username and password and that's all they need!!
Any questions about this stuff let me know.
How do you find the virus will Mcafee find it? Maxdlx

Yes, McAfee SHOULD detect it if you have the newest virus definitions. I don't have alot of experience with McAfee though. I use Norton Antivirus and every once and a while I'll run an online virus scan here:

I am using Norton professional. It detected and removed spyware from my computer right after this happend.
I also changed all my passwords in all my accounts after Norton removed the spyware.
Hopefully this will take care of if?
O'ya, I never once opened or even responded to any ebay emails other then questions from ebay members. I think what happend was that I hit the 100 item mark and got a different colored star and right after that is when it happend.
