Looks like a problem with the german ebay site?

Topic: Unknown error sniping

Hi, I’ve the same problem too. I’ve used JBidwatcher successfully before, but now all snipes I’ve tried with JBidwatcher fails.

Why did JBidWtahcer tries to store some data into the /root/ directory? All the other data are stored sucessfully at ~/.jbidwatcher.
