I'd have to look at the AIM (Advanced Integration) model, but I'm guessing
that's what you're using.  The SIM (Simple Integration) model doesn't
require any posting to Authorize.net.  Well, you -can- to verify
authenticity, but it's purely optional in the SIM model.  The nice thing
about the SIM model is that it's actually entirely passive on the selling
site, if you want it to be.

Oh yeah...I definitely still sell RawQuery.  Been a couple months since one
moved, but every once in a while I get a run on 'em, or one here or there.

Automated sales are so nice.  I like fewer things more than waking up to
email that indicates, "You've made 'x' amount, while you slept, and the
authentication information to access the software has automagically been
emailed to the user, the accounts for downloading created, have a GREAT
morning!"  Always a fantastic start to the day, that...even better when it
was entirely unexpected.

John, what the hell are you doing up at this hour? :) I'm winding down from
work towards sleep, playing poker on Facebook.  Tell me you're at least not
coding at this ungodly hour.  :) :) :)
