If you are a merchant, and you use authorize.net, then you just lost about 5-10% of your total sales as of this past weekend. As of May 28, Authorize.net started requiring "referral URLs" to be implemented in order to process transactions... however NS6 does not support this type of referral, and therefore authorize.net will decline all transactions made through NS 6+, and display the following message to your users: "invalid relay or referrer - did not go through".
This will happen every time anyone with NS 6+ tries to order from your site through authorize.net's relay response or weblink payment gateway. This will affect thousands of sites, and cost Authorize.net's users millions of dollars. I do not think that too many people know about this problem yet, I figured it out for myself while trying to find out why some of my customer's actions have been declined.
