Problem with cashing websites

more options

This has been an on going issue with ebay and being able to cash the newest listing under "Time Newly Listed". I now know this is a firefox issue. What happens is I refresh the page under the search "Time Newly Listed" and it is not pulling the newest listings. and the search returns are vary from 84,000 on one refresh and 30 seconds later it might be 83,400. Okay 10 seconds later it may show a return of 83,650. I understand that items will drop off and new ones listed but in the category I am in, a 100 listings just do not drop off in 10 seconds time. This has been an issue for just over nine months and I was taking this as an Internet Service Provider issue. It's not and it has to be an issue with firefox as this is just to erratic and this really was not an issue nine or so months back. Any help would be appreciated, Kip

Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} While you are in safe mode;

Poke around safe web sites. Are there any problems?

Then restart.

Nope, that dose no good. I have tried that many times and it dose not clear the issue up in any way shape of form. All it dose is to log me out. Please re-read what I stated about the reloading of the page and the discrepancy. of 300 or so listings just disappear in 10 or seconds between reloads of the page. On the average about 15 to 20 listings drop off in a minutes time, not 300 listings. I think there is an issue with firefox & ebay.
