USPS new module not working on our Website

[Dr776]

I uploaded the latest USPS module and it is not working correctly on our site.
We are getting the following error on a checkout from our site on this page "/index.php?main_page=checkout_shipping", I have the module in "screen" mode to see errors on screen:

Everything worked perfectly until I uploaded the new module, I had to because the old one stopped working.
I don't really know what it could be, json is not available on our version of PHP, but it looks like it can pull from CURL, which does work. could it be the new plugin working with the old version of PHP and Zen??

Specs:
PHP 5.1.6
Zen Cart 1.3.9h
FTP install
Dedicated server

It looks like your PHP version is old if json_decode isn't found (this was introduced in PHP 5.2). You might need to change hosters if your hoster isn't staying up to date.
