Paul I am on 4.8.3 so I am not sure if there were improvements made to IC in
4.8.5. I had to edit payment.pm and authorizent.pm. read this for a start,
and double check:

http://interchange.redhat.com/archive/interchange-users/2002/msg05169.html

Also, IC supports ADC RELAY and DIRECT RESPONSE, not sure about weblink.

I use DIRECT, and you don't need the referrer for that (you will probably in
the Fall). I suggest using DIRECT (it is preferred anyways), and skip the
referrer until later.

There are a couple helpful Authnet posts on the forum also. Do a search for
Authorize.net there.
