Paypal Integration Problem - "Internet Explorer cannot display the page"

[micawber]

I've come to test my new Zen Cart 1.3.8a but can't seem to get it to work with Paypal. Triple chekced what I've done in admin payment module using PayPal Website Payments Standard plus my PayPal buisness account (verified) and everything is correct. Contacted PayPal merchant technical support but they say it must be the cart as they always do!

Can anyone help as the problem is driving me loopy?

You say you, "can't get it to work". Can you be more specific about the exact problem? What's happening with it?

Please excuse my vagueness I'm pretty new to all this. I have only one payment method enabled in admin and that is PayPal Website Payments Standard. When I run a "small" trial order through the cart it gets as far as confirm the order page and then what you get next is an error page saying "Internet Explorer cannot display the page." The Customers order appears in admin OK but nothing from PayPal and my PayPal account balance doesn't get updated with the purchase amount. No e-mails are received either from within the shop or PayPal. I've tried enabling the Credit Card (offline) Option in admin but this makes no difference except that I do get an order success page and three shop emails but still nothing happpening with PayPal.

Thanks a bundle for having a look-in!

Sorry correction. If I use PayPal Website Payments Standard I get no order record in admin, emails or anyhing at the PayPal end but if I enable and use the credit card option in admin I get the order record etc. and the three shop emails but still nothing from PayPal etc.

Cheers! (Liike your site by the way)

Haven't heard form you anymore limelites? Out of curiosity installed PayPal Express Checkout and hey presto! all working now. Removed PayPal Website Payment Standard as not needed. Everything still functional! Thanks anyway.....
