#35 Ebay using graphics for log-in

Today for the first time e-bay is presenting a graphic
code that I have to type in to gain access to my
account. I'd changed my e-bay password at work
yesterday while jbidwatch was alive and working at
home. Apparently the high number of log-in requests
flagged my account as being automatically accessed.
E-bay's note about the graphic login code specifically
referenced its intention to prevent automatic log-ins.

Is it possible to set up Jbidwatch with a manual log-in
that allows me to also enter the graphic code? Or is
there some way to run in the context of a browser so
that your code can use the browser's link? That is, use
the browser as a cover?

I really appreciate your product, and I want to keep
using it. But for now, e-bay's got it blocked out.

Thanks!

    same here, do we think it's only certain accounts, I have
    two and the other one does not do it.

    Has anybody else has their password reset by ebay and
    asked to re-create it ?

    Greetings,
    This support request was unfortunately not auto-assigned to me as it should have been, so I didn't see it until now. :(

    I'll be looking to move off of Sourceforge for issue tracking soon, as it's not working out very well.
