    I have been using IE with Yrefresher...a utility which lets you set the screen refresh time. This works great for things like updating eBay auctions. Like many, I would like to get away from IE, but the screen Yrefresher advantage keeps me hanging on. I am wondering if anyone has come across a good screen refresher for Firefox?

    Something like this should work for you.

    I haven't actually *loaded* the ebay auction window within a day of an auction closing in I don't know how long. Check out this piece of FREE software:

    I set the snipe for between 4-6 seconds, and I've never lost. I don't buy a ton of stuff on ebay, but still, I've never lost.

    It keeps track of all your auctions too...anything you're watching and whatnot.

    BlinkIn...that looks to be perfect. Thanks! I'm going to give it a try.

    TomMelee...thanks for the tip on the snipe software. I'll give it a try. I do use the refresher on other things, so maybe both of these will work for me.
