Confirm order does not redirect to paypal if anonymous

[burn]

Hey guys, I have V1.1 and paypal and seems if i'm anonymous (V1.1 with no account creation) and try to confirm order, vm doesn't redirect to paypal and instead goes to checkout.thankyou and converts order to pending.

If i am logged in then i will get redirected to paypal to pay.

Any reason why anonymous shoppers cannot go to paypal?

I have v1.1 on J1.5 and I use SSL. Do i need SSL if I'm only using Paypal?

Thanks for your help guys.

i am also having a similar problem, only even if youre logged in or not you still dont get redirected to paypal at confirm.  it just stays pending.
i cant for the life of me figure out why this is happening.  i have user registration on (not optional, not silent, just regular) and have it enabled in joomla but verification not required...
maybe thats it but i dont want to hassle my customers with verification.

Same problem here; I've been detailing it in a different spot:
