As the subject - unfortunately no results returned at all this morning, and every sieve returns the error message "ebay is returning error pages or pages I cannot interpret, for Search [my search string]".

The same error is consistent across all sieves and every time I try. The sieve appears to find 0 items on the first page of each search, and brings the message up when attempting to load the second. However, AS must be receiving some data (it must be able to interpret the number of search result pages), as sieves with minimal results (only on one page) complete with 0 results.

Thing's I've tried:
- Searching from a different IP (using a VPN)
- Searching different ebay sites (.com, .com.au, .de)
- Unticking "Hide items shown before" (proving no results are downloaded)
- Searching from a different computer (I've very recently upgraded my daily driver - but AS had been working fine on the new one until today)

I am very much hoping this is just a glitch...

I'm having the same problem, not too long after installing the most recent Java update (maybe unrelated)

Thanks for reporting.
Other people have also emailed.
I'll have some time this weekend to look into this.

Cheers Nev, hope you and your family are well.

While you are at it it's worth you looking at your update mechanism, as many people are reporting it's not working - so none of us currently would be able to download any fixed update you were to produce!

Ok, new release is out.

Also managed to figure out the problem on my server, so updates should work properly!
