Hello,
Please check your server that handles PayPal Instant Payment Notifications (IPN). IPNs sent to the following URL(s) are failing:
httx://www.xxxxxx.com/forum/payment_gateway.php?method=paypal
If you do not recognize this URL, you may be using a service provider that is using IPN on your behalf. Please contact your service provider with the above information. If this problem continues, IPNs may be disabled for your account.
Thank you for your prompt attention to this issue.
Thanks,
PayPal

What do you have in the payment api manager in admincp for paypal? when you click the "test communications" what do you see directly after it?

thats is not an IPN link, vbulletin does not support the IPN feature from paypal

This has been posted about countless times. You should use the proper site when wanting support for default vbulletin functionality.
