From Check Out Cannot Confirm w/ PP

[ajvobara]

I've been searching the post like crazy and found others with similar sounding problems but not described exactly the same..  So, sorry if I missed something.. but, I've tried all the fixes for those post and nothing has worked..

This is an iexplorer issue for sure since this doesn't happen with firefox..  every time I try to confirm the order FROM THE CHECK OUT section the paypal site gives up and redirects to here..  https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_flow&SESSION=3u-HAJKCIAIlpUG6GVhIpQ4o3QQozLmFVY1Z-jvx5sXBxsmyM_EH8aqI0cm&dispatch=5885d80a13c0db1f998ca054efbdf2c25fe4a05bcb33bff6aad6e850552f81af
BUT, if you go back to the Account Maintenance page for the user and find the order there, the Pay w/ Paypal button sends you to the correct page for payment  How is this possible that it only happens in the check out and not in Account Maintenance?

Is there a fix for this since 90% of the site vistiors are going be using IE??

thanx and I look forward to all your ideas..

It seems no matter what I try. The Confirm Order button never takes the shopper to PayPal anymore. Funny thing is it used to, but now it doesn't
