brokebackebay | 08-01-2008 12:49 AM | aejacks8 - I log-in under separate Window User ids for each ebay account I have. That id is solely dedicated to that ebay account. At the beginning of each day, I unplug my modem, let it sit for a little over a minute, plug it back in and log in to one of the windows user ids. I note which ip address I am using (ipburger.com). Then, when I am ready to move on to do something on another account, I log out of the windows id I was in, do the same routine with the modem, and start all over with a new windows user. EACH AND EVERY TIME I go to log into ebay I double check the ip address to make sure it isn't on the list for any of the other ebay accounts. All of this applies to logging in to PayPal as well.
I am currently selling under 2 ids created within the last month or so and have one sleeper set aside, just in case. I am looking to set up one more that I will link to a merchant acct. as I've never tried that before and want to give it a shot.
I let the cookies/flash stuff run on one id, and not the other. As I understand it, if you are being as careful as I am with the separate window ids then it shouldn't matter as the cookies/flash are only going to sit in the windows user they were placed in. They don't get on their cell phones and chat....<grin>
Good luck! |
