SSL Security Certificate mismatches on eBay and Akamai CDN - Grrr

This is getting annoying. So I am try to pay my eBay Canada fees… ahh, I will restrain myself from replacing all references to eBay with the new word FEEbay…. and voila, I get to the payment page at

https://arbd.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?OneTimeCCPaymentShow&OneTimeCCPaymentShow=&guest=1

and what happens ? Why this lovely IE security warning popup… now look at the URL above, and see the warning.

So we see that the payment page at ardb.ebay.ca obviously is attempting to retrieve and embed content from the main eBay site at pages.ebay.com. Of course, the latter eBay.com main site uses the Akamai Content Distribution Network … so…

eBay Canada and Akamai CDN security certificate mismatches generate browser warning.

Finally, I didn’t pay my outstanding eBay balance (of USD $0.90 ) ….

sigh.
