Hey guys, I had this problem a long time ago, it was fixed by a patch DrByte made.
Anyway, as I mentioned on a couple of other threads regarding the same issue, you may find the contribution PayPal Session Viewer 2.0 very handy. It allows you to push orders so that they appear in the admin side and you can update like a regular order.

Also, read this old thread on this issue.

I really think the problem is communication between paypal and your host, but if you can solve that, this contribution might help. Personally, I'd move to a better host.
Thanks very much for that. I noticed one of your posts about v2 but I couldn't find it.
I'm going to try an install it now.
Wow! I just found this thread. Would have saved me a TON of work 3 weeks ago recovering an order.
Awesome contribution, thank you!
Here you go!

It's called the PayPal Sessions Viewer -- apologies.
