No the site has not been upgraded.
No add ons have been installed
Not sure when the problem started as I used to allow cheques as well but no longer offer this.

What options are listed in Admin->Modules->Payment? What status is showing with each, and what color is the symbol listed with each?

I have the following:

Authorize.net SIM - Showing red light - no status
Authorize.net AIM - Showing red light - no statua
credit card - Showing yellow light - default
cash on delivery - Showing yellow light - pending
Zen cart Free charge card - showing yellow light - default
Google checkout - showing yellow light - default
LinkPoint/your API - Showing red light - no status
Check/Money order - Showing red light -no status
Paypal IPN - Showing green light - processing
Paypal Express checkout - Showing red light - no status

Thanks for all your help

Authorize.net SIM - Showing red light - no status
Authorize.net AIM - Showing red light - no statuaOkay, so those are properly set for being unused.> lorrie:

credit card - Showing yellow light - defaultSound like you're not intending to use that module, so you should click the "Remove" button on it.> lorrie:

cash on delivery - Showing yellow light - pending
Zen cart Free charge card - showing yellow light - defaultThat sounds fine if you are intending to use COD for payment (not sure why you would though).
And the Free Charge Card option is used only for orders that calculate to $0 ... allowing them to complete checkout without attempting to collect payment.> lorrie:

Google checkout - showing yellow light - defaultMaybe the many other alterations you made to your site to accommodate Google might have broken things on your checkout-payment page, preventing competing options from appearing?> lorrie:

LinkPoint/your API - Showing red light - no status
Check/Money order - Showing red light -no statusFine, since unused.> lorrie:

Paypal IPN - Showing green light - processingThat's a normal configuration, and in that state, should show up naturally in the list of payment options on the checkout_payment page.> lorrie:

Paypal Express checkout - Showing red light - no statusNormal if not used.

Hi

Thanks for taking the time to analyse my payment module setup. I have removed all exept 2 which I am using which are Paypal IPN and Cheque. This made no diference to the Paypal not showing up but I do have the cheque payment method now showing up on my page. Which tells me some code is maybe missing in the page. I will delve deeper and compare old and new scripts to see if I can find out what is missing.

When you click on your PayPal IPN module, and click Edit, what do you have selected in the Zone pulldown? If it's not set to -None-, please explain why?
