EBAY cancelled snipes even after it placed several items.. required verification code. won many but lost most of the ones where I was the single bidder ! and others with only one other low bid !

I think you will need to follow the instructions for setting up the Gixen socks proxy. A link to those should have been provided against the first snipe failure.
With that in place you then need to find the blockage that Gixen is encountering, by trying to place a test bid on Ebay... then when you find what Ebay is asking you to do follow their instructions to get your Ebay account verified against the Gixen server.
Only after that would it be safe for you to schedule any more snipes on Gixen. _________________ Mark

#281919523769 won this item and kept
winning until after# 391372419845 this
item was up for auction #281919523796 all
items until including# 281919539553 were
cancelled. then i won item #161960164296
without changing anything. I spoke with
ebay technical support and although they
don't support snipe services they stated
that they did not block anything nor
require any verification codes. I can not possibly manage forty separate auctions that usually end within minutes of one another without a reliable snipe service.

You will get the same issue with any service that submits snipes from a server that is remote from your home. It isn't something that any service is going to be able to resolve without some effort on your part.
If you get an 'EBAY REQUIRED VERIFICATION CODE' status the only possible way that could happen is if Gixen identifies an Ebay page as one requesting further verification of your account that is the result of trying to submit a bid for you.
Did you set up the socks proxy so that you can complete the verification steps that Ebay are asking for when Gixen tries to bid from your Ebay account? _________________ Mark
