I bought a computer off eBay and it has some kind of thing called Child Control 2008 and the person i got it from doesn't know how to get it off can i hack it and how?

Reinstall the operating system. If you don't have a disk then Microsoft will provide you with one for $10 if you confirm that you own it w/ the product key.

If that's not an option then install an antivirus and block the program using it. The two programs will fight it out, but it will come down to whichever one runs first when you boot it.

If that isn't an option either then you can install Linux on a flash drive... and boot into it. Theres hundreds of websites that can show you how to do that. Once you boot into it you can remove the program directly by opening the harddrive, finding the child control program, and deleting it.

How do you get money back from eBay even if you missed the deadline of dispute?

If you missed the deadline for either raising a dispute or escalating that dispute to a claim, then you will not get your money back through eBay or PayPal.

If that is the case, you can try approaching your card issuer for help in retrieving your money - if that's how you funded the payment - or consider legal action if the item is sufficiently valuable.

Never allow an eBay (or PayPal) dispute or claim to time-out because once closed, the dispute/claim is closed for good.

How am I infringing on copyright laws if I'm selling an item on eBay?

If what you're offering to sell on eBay (or anywhere else) is an unlawfully made copy of copyrighted materials, then offering to sell it is an infringement of the copyright owner's exclusive right to sell copies to the public. The so-called "first sale doctrine" (e.g., in the USA, 17 USC 109) does not apply to illegal copies.

From here you get to select either the last 60 days of purchases, or archived purchases which could go as far back as when you opened you eBay account.

To view a complete list of your purchase history do the following:

1) Follow instructions above.

2) Look at the centre of the screen for "recent" and "archived"

3) Select which one you want to view.

4) Select the period, (2012, 2011, 2010...) (applies to archived purchases)

5) View your history. Done!

Remember that it is normal to see old purchases missing a picture, description or clickable link, this is due to a) the link being expired, b) the product is no longer for sale.

You are still able to contact the seller about historic purchases in most cases (if they are still registered on eBay).

Ebay offers rss feeds of item searches, but these feeds are limited to local searches of ordinary listings or specific store listings. Feeds for global eBay searches or all stores' inventory searches is not supported by eBay at this time.

Ponyfish is a third party rss service that can created an rss feed from an eBay search page. To use ponyfish to create a global search and a stores' inventory search feed:

1. Perform the eBay search from the "Advanced Search" page. At Locations select "Items available", then "All Countries/Regions" from the drop-down list. At Show Only, select "More buying options", then "All items including Store Inventory Format" from the drop-down list.

2. At ponyfish.com, select "Create a feed now". Copy the web address for the completed search into Step One at ponyfish. It will give a warning that "this page already provides a native feed". Select "continue using Ponyfish".

3. At "Step Two Click on at least two links..." scroll through the ponyfish frame of the eBay search and click on as many of the desired search results as possible, then Continue.

4. Complete the ponyfish process and select the rss icon to add the feed to your rss reader.

You have set up your bank account with PayPal but when you tried to buy something after you log in to it on eBay it goes to a page asking for what looks like credit card details-what's going wrong?

Nothing is going wrong. When you click on the eBay 'pay now' button, the next page you will see shows the payment method as PayPal by default, although other options are shown below. Beside the PayPal option, you will see several credit card logos but don't be concerned about that. Select PayPal and continue. On the next page, you will need to log into PayPal and can then view the payment that you are about to make and your funding source method (in your case, bank account) will be specified. Confirm the payment and you'll receive an email confirming that the money has been sent to the seller.

Is the eBay online business a profitable one to use as a job?

If by "use as a job" the question asker meant "can you replace your job with an eBay business", then the answer would depend on how much money you made from your eBay business and how much you made at your job.

Like any business, if it was only a hobby, then you are not likely to be able to replace your job. But there are many people who have grown their businesses on eBay to the point where it has become their full time work, and able to replace their job or former business.

It's just like any other retail business except you use the Internet as a medium to reach your buyers, and your products have to be shipped off. Having an eBay business has a lower start up cost than a traditional bricks and mortar business, and you're able to potentially reach a larger, worldwide market.

But if you approach any business with a job mentality (work for a boss, get paid just for showing up, and receive $x amount for the hours you put in), then you are not likely to succeed, or feel secure with fluctuations in income experienced by a business owner.

If you get turned over to a collection agency for eBay will i receive the items?

First, only a company or an individual with a judgment can lawfully higher a collections agency to recover a debt, so I assume this was a business eBay seller? The short answer, contact an FDCPA attorney because the collections agency is breaking the law. In every lawful transaction there must be consideration, they provide you with an item, you provide them payment. However if they have never sent you the item, and you have never sent them payment, there is nothing to collect. This action also violates Ebay terms of service, since they do not allow for sellers to do that, I would report them to Ebay also. Any eBay seller knows that if the buyer does not pay, eBay refunds all fees; so there is no loss on the sellers side.
