Paypal Not Accepting Ipn Url

I am trying to setup Paypal IPN for the past couple of days !

And every time I get the error :

**

We were unable to validate the URL you have entered. Please check your entry and try again.

**

The IPN url I am trying to set it : http://www.geniusforums.net/misc.php?do=paypal_ipn

I did a dns test to see if the problem was with that but everything seems to be fine!

http://www.dnsstuff.com/tools#dnsReport|type=domain&&value=geniusforums.net

It is accepting the IPN of a different site hosted on the same server, but just not the current IPN. I asked a couple of my friends also to check the IPN with their Paypal accounts, assuming the problem was with just my account, but they respond they are also getting the same error!

I just checked the IPN url using the IPN Testing in Paypal developer, and well, see for yourself:

**

We are sorry we could not connect to this URL. Please make sure it was entered correctly.

Where am I going wrong?

Try using create ipn settings in https://www.paypal.com/home this account instead of https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/

I think I read somewhere that the IPN URL must be SSL hence https did a quick search however could not find the reference. May be the solution though.
