I think there was a change in how credit cards were being processed after 2000 and the protocol could not be 'open-sourced' as it is all kept hush-hush via expensive NDA agreements. Between those changes and some others.. the software may not be usable anymore. I am not sure what is done these days for CC processing.. most of the items I have seen use propietary services now. -- Stephen J Smoogen. -- CSIRT/Linux System Administrator How far that little candle throws his beams!
