I just want to remove the "eBay.co.uk: " portion of the title.
Probably the best way to handle this is to make the change to the Item Title shortly after creating it, before the situation gets away from you. Incorporating the renaming of the imported Item earlier in your workflow is probably your best solution.

If you currently have a large number of Items to rename (more than a few dozen, which could be renamed manually with F2), probably the best course of action would be to Export to oml/xml, then do a Search/Replace with a compitent text editor (Notepad or equivalent), then Import the modified oml/xml back into UR (or maybe a new UR database).

I have not personal tried this with Stored webpages, you might want to run some tests, but it should work.

Also, when exporting be sure to select ALL fields to be exported, since it will probably be best to Import back into a new folder (creating new Items). I don't know how UR ia going to handle a new Item with the same URL attribute as an exisitng Item - like I said run some tests.

You can run the Export against a selected folder to narrow the focus, and for testing.

This is just off the top of my head unless anyone else has any ideas.

Updated:
You might want to check Tools | Options | Import (More) - Use Page Title for Item Title, changing this setting may have an impact on how new Items are named.

Updated - Another Thought:
Although I'm not familiar with FF Scrapbook, but if all (any) of the webpages still exist in Scrapbook can you Export or Save As out to individual html files (or .mht)?

How does Scrapbook name the resulting html files?

Could you use a program such as Lupas Rename (http://rename.lupasfreeware.org/) to parse the filenames to your liking prior to import to UR?

Just thinking out loud.
