Ebay and "DoubleClick"

Post by **DRuM** » Sun Oct 02, 2005 3:29 pm

Every time I load up an ebay page from any link, spybot gives me this message. And it tells me 3 times before it goes away. Anyone else get this?

double-click is probably the most used
spyware.

seems like you enabled realtime protection with spybot "didn't know it had that feature to be honest ...i don't like it".

perhaps you can disable spybot giving you those messages and block double-click automatically.

Drum, internet explorer? If so, lol@ you

firefox has a noscript plugin, all you need is that and none of that shit will ever come up.

Disable scripting in IE and run XP SP2 for the same effect.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not knocking Firefox, I just don't think its the Second Coming either.

Have you've ever tried typing "about:mozilla" in Firefox's address box? The Second Coming is near!

Hardly, the NoScript extension lets you whitelist whatever sites you want. So ebay.com can still run scripts while doubleclick.com is disabled.

Whitelists weren't mentioned, disabling scripting was.

The thread topic is how to make doubleclick.com not fuck with ebay browsing.
The only two solutions I see are to 1) disable connections to doubleclick.com 2) whitelist ebay.com 's scripting, which allows ebay to work as normal.
Disableing all scripting would cripple many sites, replacing one problem with another.

I block doubleclick at the network perimeter and shop ebay with no issues so IE scripting is not the issue at hand. Chances are malware or a misconfiguration of Spybot is the problem.
