ps: now esniper is saying
Auction <iterm-number>: Login failed
yikes!

[Helmut Heller]

Yup, same here. It's because eBay put in an extra "Cyber Monday" page. I just don't know how to skip over it in source code.

[Helmut Heller]

OK, easy enough! Just add the "Cyber monday" line and the OR operator (||) in auction.c in line 477 to make the if code look like this:

            if ((pp->srcId && !strcmp(pp->srcId, "SignInAlertSupressor"))||
                (pp->pageName &&
                    (!strncasecmp(pp->pageName, "MyeBay", 6) ||
                     !strncasecmp(pp->pageName, "My eBay", 7) ||
                     !strncasecmp(pp->pageName, "Watch list", 10) ||
                     !strncasecmp(pp->pageName, "Purchase History", 16) ||
                     !strncasecmp(pp->pageName, "Electronics", 11)) ||
                     !strncasecmp(pp->pageName, "Cyber Monday Deals Now On!", 27)
                ))

thanks very much for that, I reinstalled esniper with the new auction.c and esniper is now working again.

Thanks Helmut Heller for the bugfix, can confirm it works for me, too.
