Well there are lots of other money procesors that are just like PayPal. The most reliable ones are Stormpay and E-gold.
There are a few more, but i have no experience with them, so i cant tell u if u can trust them

What's wrong with PayPal?
What's wrong with typing "you" and "your"?

You are wise by looking for an alternitive to PayPal. Someone tried to pay me with a stolen credit card through PayPal. Paypal then locked my account. They withdrew the money from my account that came from the stolen credit card, which I didn't mind them doing. But they have not released my money I had in my paypal account before this happened. It has now been 8 months and my account is still locked. I can't use it, can't cancel it. After speaking with customer service several times to no avail, and sending dozens of emails, I finally gave up trying. You should check out aboutpaypal.org and read some or the stories about them. I wish I would have got some education before I ever used PayPal.
Best Regards
Aopp

Paypal is not seller friendly, that is for sure. I have had my share of problems as well. I recently sold an item on ebay and sent the item out to the customer. After about a week, I get a notice in my Paypal account that the owner of the credit card has filed an unauthorized use of their card to buy the item from me. So now, my account is frozen, I am out the money the customer sent, and I will never get the item back. This is the credit card company and the customer's problem to fix, Not mine. I did nothing wrong and am out the money and the item. I will stick to Bidpay.com from now on.

PayPal is annoying because their account interface is poor and the occasional chargeback, but they are the best and most widespread payment system. The only other system that I would even consider using is Google Wallet, if and when that becomes available.
Other systems like StormPay seem a bit lenient on fraudulent businesses in order to get more clients, so they seem to have a bad reputation, and most legit businesses wouldn't touch them with a ten foot pole.
Google has the power to become the dominant payment system, although it doesn't quite fit with their espoused mission about organizing and indexing the world's data. Still they could pull it off...

HAHAHA..that cartoon is cool.
I haven't used my PayPal in a long time...long before scams started surfacing and ruining it for everyone.

Um there have been a few suggested.
E-gold, Stormpay, moneybookers to name a few.
I personally use paypal and e-gold right now.
Paypal sucks as we all know. They have insane fee's
and are always a hassle.
E-gold is USUALLY great, but it recently went down due
to hackers or DDOS attacks or some such. It's fees are
awesome...only $.75 max per transaction!!!
With it being down though I am probably going to
be switching over to Stormpay soon.
Stormpay recently dropped their fee's from 6% down
to about 3%, which is still kind of high but oh well,
it's the most reliable at the moment.

The drop is only for "NetIba certified" members, wich u have to pay around 20$ to become .
Anyways, u can save a lot for those 20$ 
I like stormpay, its kind of cool, altough the fees suck, yet i like stormclix a lot , i make around 2 or 4 extra bucks per week, its not much cause i dont have much time to click for adds, yet it is a nice 10$-16$ extra bucks per month, and if u think about it, those extra bucks from clicks cover some of the fees per transaction (unless we are talking about huge amounts of money)
