You should follow instructions on that page. It's necessary to access eBay from Gixen's IP address in order to associate your username with Gixen's IP address, hence the proxy server. This way eBay knows that you are you, and that access is legitimate.

got the COULD NOT BID: PHONE OR TEXT VERIFICATION REQUESTED BY EBAY

I just changed my password on Ebay recently (Thursday 1/29)

anyone have this problem?

When I went into Gixen to see what the problem was here was the rest of the message:

If you are seeing this page, it is likely that your account requires phone or text verification by eBay.
You have to complete this verification from Gixen IP address in order for Gixen to be able to place bids for you.
Here are steps on how to do it:

1. Please log out of ebay, clear all ebay cookies in your browser (important).
2. Setup your web browser to use Gixen socks server as illustrated on images below.
3. Verify (see below these steps) that you are connected to the proxy server by refreshing this page.
4. If you haven't changed your eBay password since May 21st, please do so immediately. See htt p://ww w.ebay.com and htt p://www .ebay.com/reset as to why.
5. After you are done with this, you have to place a manual bid (on any auction). eBay may (or may not) ask you to verify your account (the same way it asks Gixen), and you have to complete this verification if asked to do so.
6. If you wish to disable proxy in your browser, you can do so now, it's likely no longer needed. It doesn't hurt, however, to leave it on for a while, e.g. a week or so. Only your Gixen and eBay traffic is routed through it, nothing else.
7. Schedule a snipe. It should work now.

Your IP address is: (not posted on this forum)

This means that you are connected to Gixen socks proxy.
