I was looking for a CNC mill on Ebay and entered the search words and got back a listing of items.
I then clicked on an item that I wanted to view. The item was shown for a few seconds then the browser page redirected to a "phishing site" - www.viewitemsquare.com that presented a duplicate Ebay login page requesting my userid and password.
I run a full suite of MCaffee Internet security tools and have my firewall and browser options at high security.
It appears that someone has figured out how to load malicious commands directly into Ebay item listings.
