Both sites are fine when browsed with: Firefox under Vista; Safari under Vista (same machine with the IE7 that won't work!), IE6 under XP Pro, Opera under XP Pro, Firefox under XP Pro, and Safari, Firefox and Opera under Mac OS10.
When using IE7 attempting to purchase by clicking on the "confirm the order" button (Step 3 in the order confirmation confirmation process) causes PayPal to display an error page.
Clearly if this is a common issue then we are all losing money! I have searched the forums and whilst I find that IE7 causes numerous posts, I haven't seen this one before. Probably the first response will either tell where the 'fix' is or point out something simple that I can do to 'fix' the problem but, believe you me, I'll be ever so grateful!
