Be careful, I`ts probably a scam of sorts. I had an e-mail from E-Bay yesterday that someone was complaining about me having received the money and not sent the item. I have an account, but have never sold anything on there in my life. I just deleted it.

Strange, mine doesn't.
Check your PC for virus infections or spamware or browser hijack if this is a recent change... which it sounds like.
If you've got no AV and no ad ware killers I suggest AVG from Grisoft and AdAware from Lavasoft, both of which have free-for-personal-use versions.

are you using a link?
It is possible that the link does not really go to that site... even if it looks like it does.
using html coding it is possible to make the link display http://www.nice.xxx
but, in the background the link really takes you to http://www.verynasty.xxx
