PayPal IPN - Order never recieved but is paid for?

An order was received from paypal, but the store never showed the Order. Since the description on paypal doesn't show the line items, I have no clue what was ordered.

The IPN history on paypal says it was sent.
I tried resending anyway, but nothing happened.
Turn on the log, re-sent IPN, nothing was logged.

Any suggestions?

Using Express Checkout instead will solve two problems for you: the line items will be on the paypal side, and your store won't be dependent on receiving the IPN so the order can be saved into your store.
