Payflow integration changes.

Hi guys, I'm running v1.5.0 and I've just had the following email. Do I need to make any changes?

Thanks!

For this situation, no changes required. Zen Cart changed all verisign references to paypal back in 2009, in accordance with PayPal's guidance at that time. (included since v1.3.9)

But, I'm also mindful that your v1.5.0 site is using code from 2011, and it is now 2015. I recommend spending time planning an upgrade, especially since the webstore industry is constantly changing, and your old store isn't taking advantage of security improvements happening in the ecommerce industry.

Hi Dr. Byte, thanks a million for the fast and informative reply. Much appreciated. I'll look into upgrading to the latest version. It usually gets put on the backburner due to lack of time but pointing out that it's now been 4 years makes me realise how long it's been on the backburner for!
