 Are you sure you want to leave this page?
 Message from webpage:

Is it only on Ebay when you are trying to list an item?  If so that is the way Ebay coded the page maybe there are unsaved changes.
miller75--
It probably is just a warning from eBay to save you from losing data you may have entered on the page.  Another way of saying it could be "This page is asking you to confirm that you want to leave.  Data you have entered may not be saved".

However, it never hurts to scan with your antivirus program.

There are quite a few people complaining about the problem on eBay but apparently it is happening on certain webmail pages and it all seems to be related to KB2846071
miller75--Why do you think this is bad (other than requiring an extra click)?  eBay could just be trying to prevent you from losing entered data.
