Does it happen every time? If it's intermittent then there was an issue
with contacting UPS when the total-cost tag was computed and it returned
a 0 shipping cost, however when the shipping tag was computer UPS was
contacted correctly. We went to local UPS table lookups for this very
reason, but I have heard other consultants have built local cache tables
in the event that the www lookup is not working.
Good luck,
