 * I have just installed and all I get when testing the button is a constant validating
   icon, which seems stuck in a loop.
 * Please can you advise me where I have gone wrong? It seemed a fairly straight
   forward plugin to install and configure.
 * My site is at: – [http://protectmypcforfree.com/](http://protectmypcforfree.com/)

 * Hi,
 * Where do you get this icon? After pressing the donation button?

 * Hi
 * To the right of it. If you go to the site you can see it for yourself to see 
   what I am talking about. Cheers!

 * I took a look and I see what you mean. That validation window popping up is not
   part of the plugin.
 * When I traced where it comes from, it seems to be part of something called AnswerCloud/
   SiteBrains or similar. Is that something you have installed, or ring a bell?
   
   Apparently that validation script attaches itself to any form button and tries
   to validate it on submission. They should probably make sure that they only attach
   themselves to comment form buttons (I suppose that is the purpose) and not every
   form/submission button available on a page.
 * So try disabling the plugin that adds that validation function, and you will 
   see the PayPal plugin working.
 * From the PayPal Donations plugin’s point of view, I can’t do anything to override
   what that validation plugin attaches to the button. It’s out of my control. But
   that AnswerCloud/Sitebrain script could probably be updated to verify that they
   only attach themselves to the buttons they are supposed to validate.
 * Hope this helps.
 * Cheers,
    Johan
