Hello Peter,
Sorry I couldn't get back to you sooner but I've been off
line for a couple of days.
Your info about being able to get the Ebay messages and
questions "Listen" link to work is interesting. I've just
been on there again and it still will not work for me,
although such links on other sites do work OK for me.
Do you have any idea what the problem might be. In other
words, have you at any time made adjustments to your setup
and/or JAVA settings to allow this to work?
Unfortunately, you are the only person to try these "Listen"
links for me, so I don't know whether my experience is the
most common or yours.
If anyone else could try one of these Ebay "listen" links
and report back, I should appreciate this.
By the way, as I expected, it's now six days since I
contacted the Supervisor at Ebay about this and no one has
got back to me since.
John.

Hi, just tried it and it worked for me. atleast their's are
quite audible
i.e. just uses numbers and not words etc without too much of
those
background sounds.
