I'd say its probably a bug in IE with all the eBay links.

In the past I have loaded The MLA on the Windows boxes at school with IE7 and received phishing warnings on a few threads. :-/

Yes, a reasonable individual might think this.

But it's a conspiracy.

Microsoft is trying to prevent thoughtcrime from within its suppressed user base. Accessing a page such as that constitutes a major blaspheme against Big Brother. It will be stopped.

From about the middle of last year onwards, about (at least) half of the system-generated(?) advice-to-the- winner emails that I received (in Mail 2.1.3) from eBay stimulated Growl into giving me a suspected phishing warning. eBay's emails were the only source of such warnings. I usually file emails from eBay after processing payment for the relevant Items, and then never consult them again. This behaviour, I see now with the wisdom of hindsight, stopped abruptly after I installed SecUpd2009-001PPC for Tiger last week. Indeed, I found a moment ago that the warning could no longer be elicited even by opening the formerly affected emails. Accident? Design? Che sa?
