- In your countries table set the ship_modes column to something
	poignant
- Take a look at shipping.asc under <catalog_home>/products/ and make
	sure it cooresponds to the prior action.
- If things still do not work, it is probably fedex's fault:

the struggle with fedex being stupid can be found by searching the
mailing list archives for either of these subjects:

[ic] Fedex.pm Fix Download Link
[ic] FedEx Rate Finder upgrade

or, alternatively, you can cut right to the chase and go here:
http://home.epix.net/~mlehman/fedex.html
where you can download a fixed Fedex.pm

note: remember that this will query the some black-box fedex server that
will make magic happen. If this is unacceptable behavior(as it was for
me), then you should look at doing internal fedex ship-cost lookup. A
good place to look for information on implementing this would be the
posts of Jim Balcom who pushes this solution every chance he gets. (Look
for the penguin signature ;P).

good luck.
