   Hi,

   I am testing a new site and ran into a 403 forbidden error in a specific case with the PayPal sandbox environment.

   I am using PayPal Standard to accept donations. If the user has a PayPal account the flow works great. Both IPN and PDT work without issue. If the user has no PayPal account however and attempts to pay with a CC, then the string that is passed back by PayPal results in the 403 error. I am not sure exactly what BPS does not like in the string nor how to configure it to allow this condition.

   The URL passed back that results in the error is:
   http://mysite.org/give/jane2014/?tx=73397261811355915&st=Completed&amt=5.00&cc=USD&cm=&item_number=&g=1352833395&n=038d7189fd&pfund_action=donate-campaign&t=pp&tx=73397261811355915&st=Completed&amt=5.00&cc=USD&cm=&item_number=&sig=rY5HuTYgjxTawvYwdperHLSPf0PuNiHXuPG3ovU2Cpdla8OlYbZIhXseJuPPonyDLJQ2N9LiRQtf5WFYoqIDxOhOEue7EV0IGVIcfAVX0R2YJutZ86f4X8K6LICSUBV5Y5d7Ga5pUkqf6heX0pE6PisRRlYgbZNsqNPEFvMywZY%253d&sig=rY5HuTYgjxTawvYwdperHLSPf0PuNiHXuPG3ovU2Cpdla8OlYbZIhXseJuPPonyDLJQ2N9LiRQtf5WFYoqIDxOhOEue7EV0IGVIcfAVX0R2YJutZ86f4X8K6LICSUBV5Y5d7Ga5pUkqf6heX0pE6PisRRlYgbZNsqNPEFvMywZY%253d&merchant_return_link=Return+to+Test+Seller%27s+Test+Store&auth=A79DnnhlrtGZn88v3FDFOBfVYwonQP7ntkbWiWZ2J5-X9gSe8.7MD2ymmhJ0vtqclT4BU27X2LTPxIS8Y8j9xXQ&form_charset=UTF-8

   If I deactivate BPS, then the transaction completes successfully. I read the other threads on the BPS 403 errors but no of them seem to apply.

   Running BULLETPROOF PRO 5.2.2.

   Thanks for any guidance.
