Esnipe (the other guys) had this to say but you can only find it if you go to the server status page. I imagine they didn't find it until users started complaining so they could fix it. but the olny way you would find this is to check the server status, its not on their news page which seems to have a most recent article of 7-2003
December 13 - BID EXECUTION ALERT (Now Corrected!)
(15:18 PST) Starting at 15:06, eBay made a significant change in their login procedure that impacted eSnipe's ability to execute bids. At this time, our technical people are working on a fix for this problem. Meantime, all bids are failing with "eBay Connection Problem". Users are encouraged to place any pending bids by hand on eBay directly. We will update this notice as soon as we have the solution in place. UPDATE: (16:21 PST) As of 16:18, our technical people have put in a fix and bids are executing properly again. We apologize for the lost bids but since we get no advance warning of eBay changes, we can only do our best to react promptly.
