Request for Account verification http//81.145.172.34:5555. Scam?

Over the last few days when logged into Ebay I keep getting a pop up message asking for my account name and password to be supplied. The request is by http//81.145.172.34:5555 in order for them (whoever they are) to verify my account. Is it a scam? I don't think this is referring to my Ebay details but to my Firefox details because the pop up box looks very similar to the Firefox 'signing in' box which protects my stored log-in details for various accounts. I have executed a malware scan - no objects found.
