Same problem here. It seemed if you logged in and then tried to go anywhere else on the site it didn't work. I thought it was my settings but it did exactly the same on the other computer. It's probly cos they've only just uploaded the new layout system. It seems to be fine now.

Are you on NTL by any chance? Theyve been having problems with their caches and a common complaint is problems viewing eBay.

Setting an explicit web proxy in Internet Explorer for Windows
The following procedure works on all Windows platforms running Internet
Explorer 5.x/6.x, and the procedure for Internet Explorer 4.x is very
similar:

Open Control Panel Internet Options (or, in IE, pull down menu Tools and
select Internet Options...).
Click on the tab Connections.
Click on button LAN Settings.
Uncheck Automatically detect settings.
Uncheck Use automatic configuration script.
Check Use a proxy server but ensure that the boxes are left blank.
Click on button Advanced:
In the row HTTP fill in the name and port number of your chosen web proxy
server (see below). It is essential that you do not select port 80, even if
your chosen server offers a proxy service on that port.
Ensure that the other rows are left blank.
Uncheck Use the same proxy server for all protocols.
In the Exceptions box enter: 192.168.*
Click OK.
Click OK to exit LAN settings.
Click OK to apply the changes and exit Internet Options.
The last few stages in Advanced avoid using the proxy for Secure HTTPS and
FTP traffic, and ensure that you retain local access to any cable modem
diagnostics pages and to any NAT router setup pages, which typically use
addresses in the range 192.168.xxx.xxx.

To return Internet Explorer to normal operation with no explicit web proxy:

Open Control Panel Internet Options (or in IE pull down menu Tools and
select Internet Options...).
Click on the tab Connections.
Click on button LAN Settings:
Uncheck Automatically detect settings.
Uncheck Use automatic configuration script.
Uncheck Use a proxy server.
Click OK to exit LAN settings.
Click OK to exit Internet Options
