Cool Nurdo Ebay

In case anybody is puzzled by this ebayer: <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2414644842&category=6432;" target="_blank">http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2414644842&category=6432;</a> this guy has a badly faded 84 for sale and mixed in with his pictures ARE PICS OF MY CAR, from PO. Too obvious to be any attempt at trickery, funny, but startling to me to see my car on ebay. What a nurd!

Steve - he may not be using pics of your car!

The pics in the middle have been mislabeled in the http...they are making calls to:
c:/mydocuments/mypictures/porsche1.jpg....etc...

SO..if you have files with these names (likely) and in the 'My Pictures" folder (ALSO likely...) - then the browser is inserting the pics off of YOUR harddrive!

Mark: He has access to my harddrive? Wow. More likely he has them on his with the pics of his '84. It is a puzzle. I don't think the PO ever posted them. It was not on ebay, but on cars.com and not posted there either. He sent them to me and probably to this putz. who knows where else. he was loading pics of his '84, and included the jpgs of my car by mistake. You would think he would add a correction to the ad, but then that would be too much.

STEVE -

He is NOT into your hard drive...hold a mouse over the pic...right click and chose 'properties'...

When he did the page - he neglected to include the proper "parking spot" where he uploaded the pics to...re-read my original reply...

Steve-
no one else sees (at least I don't) pictures of your car- the link directs each user back to their own hard drive and pictures. Try changing the name or location of your own pictures on your computer & see if this is indeed the case.

This guy has some serious Nurdo issues too!
