eBay "freeze ups"

[Flying10uk]

I wondered how many other people here have instances of quietly minding your own business, browsing eBay, and then all of a sudden, out of the blue, and without warning, your whole dam computer freezes solid? It's only happened to me while browsing eBay (UK) and it's extremely difficult to do anything, even shut your computer down.

Almost nothing works and as I'm not a computer expert I found that I've had to resort to my solution of last resort for such situations with I.T. problems, namely try pressing various keys, in various orders and in various combinations until I find something that works/happens. I don't recommend this solution to anyone else but it's my solution of last resort.

Once I've finally got the computer to shut down and then restarted it, all is normally well. In such situations I always clear my browsing history.

Looking online, it would seem other people have had various forms of screen freeze while using eBay.

All that I want out of eBay is a simple boring place where I can easily buy things online and sell a few odds and odds that I no longer need in an uncomplicated manner. I don't expect to have to be a Software Engineer/I.T. Consultant to use eBay.
