No, they cannot see your browser history. They can see if you click on a link that diverts you to their site though, but nothing else.

Very true, I was under the impression that they got very limited data from cookies for targeted advertising though.

If CHROME was not so buggy, it's anonymous to use | |

Firefox seems to be the way to go then.
I still use IE but it's simple for my purposes.

I have a user account just for my internet browsing and has no ebay or pp attached at all.
When I am doing personal looking etc I use this user account for all of that.
Keeps things separated.

My concern is if I didn't block/disable images on my email account, can ebay see if I logged into another website?
