On Ebay, after I search, there is a blank spot at the top of the page that covers up some items.

When I search for items on Ebay, there is a band across the screen in the search box that covers up an area equal to about 2/3 or the screen. I can scroll through it and the items below the band are fine but when I go to the next page, I have the same problem. It does not show when I go to my Ebay and appears only to be within the search function. I have tried it with Internet Explorer and have no problems.
