  I have tried to upgrade my domain (the $17/year fee)
  I complete the form requesting information, but when I try to pay via PayPal Express or visa, nothing happens.
  I can’t get past the select payment screen.
  any help would be greatly appreciated.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  As a precaution I would do a full virus scan on your machine. There are some viruses that attempt to intercept your payment verification and use it to send money to another payee. Its possible that something about your computer setup is preventing it from working (which is good) but as a result you cannot make genuine payments

  All excellent suggestgions….but the answer apparently lay with my browser (I am using IE) …I used a friend’s machine and Mozilla Firefox and completed the transaction effortlessly.
  Thanks to all that responded.
