I got the URLs for USPS Shipping APIs Activation, but neither URL works. Any ideas?

Also, when I try to practice order something on my site, http://RedSunJewelry.com I get this:

XML -> Google Checkout

Hi, These URL's are just for testing if you're building your own site, but with cc you don't have to. If you've received a user ID and password from the usps just call this number to have your account activaed

1-800-344-7779.

I do have a user ID and Password and I did call to activate it. Do I need to do anything more with that now or do I assume that my shipping is going to work like a charm with no problems whatsoever? ;) Wink wink.

Actually, it isn't until this very moment that the blurb I was getting when trying to put the practice order in is a Google thing (and not USPS). SO, any idea why I'm getting the Google thing?

I'm so confused.

I don't have a clue; I'm actually getting the same error and was hoping I would get an answer from your post. I just had my usps account activated and am now testing that’s why I knew that answer. So let’s hope someone out there can save us both. Good luck.
