error #ghn-desc-a#???
Hi. Since some times when I access ebay, in the notify balloon I do not see anymore the name of whom contacts me, but this strange string
- ghn-desc-a#
I contacted their support and they said that it is a problem of browser,a nd they told me that perhaps it has come time to use another browseer, e.g. Chrome... I told 'em that it wasn't a good answer and that I cannot realize that the issue where from a browser instead than from a site which would be as much crossbrowser as possible. He insisted that I had to drob firefox and I answered him that rather I'll be thought that for me has come time to change site! And he closed the chat. Anyway, let's drop that: it is there some specific problems with ebay and firefox?

How often does this happen? Is it only with eBay?
Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache.

If there is still a problem, Start Firefox in Safe Mode {web link} by holding down the <Shift> (Mac=Options) key, and then starting Firefox.
A small dialog should appear. Click Start In Safe Mode (not Refresh). Did this help?
While you are in safe mode;
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration in Firefox. Since this feature was added to Firefox it has gradually improved but there are still a few glitches.

It always happens since two months or so, and only in ebay (as much as I only get this just onto the notification label: so I don't know whether it is a issue which may surface also in other similar sites or not). I usually delete cache/cookie, but the issue remains.
I called for more help.
Remove History For One Site
Open the History Manager <Control><Shift> H. In the search bar, enter the name of the site. Right-click on one of the listings and select Forget About This Site. This should remove all information, including any passwords / settings.
Ok. Could you put some options in order to remove in some ways all the matches from the list? It is a very long list and it's frustrating to remove them one by one, 'cause removing just the ebay root doesn't eliminate them all. thanks for the rest: I'll be match the result of the operation once I'll get some other new mail from users. Regards.
Ok, test done: a mail has arrived, but nothing has changed in the notify bubble.
