eBay / Gavel Snipe question

Hello all. Anyone else have problems with ebay / Gavel Snipe today/tonight? I had 7 bids not go through because of "Bid blocked by eBay CAPTCHA" Of those 7 I had 4 with higher snipes than what the item closed for. I am fairly new to sniping and Gavel Snipe (a little over a year) and this is the first time I have seen this. Does it happen occasionally?

Thanks in advance for any feedback.

    +1 It happens sometimes if eBay thinks you have an easy to guess/hack password. Create a stronger eBay password with 16 characters, throw in some capital letters, numbers, and characters. Then update your password in both eBay and gavelsnipe. I see these complaints on message boards about every two months.

    It happened to me and once I fixed it, I haven't had any problems.
