Nobody in their right mind will exchange anything using PayPal because the transaction can be reversed by chargeback up to a month after the transaction.
See this video and others like it to understand why http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lr_7--e5A1g or just search for the keywords "paypal scam bitcoin"

Why not just pay them with paypal, or your credit card?

THANK YOU, I really don't know why everyone questioning me and everything what I'm asking for is easy or so I thought, alls I am looking for is one person who can figure out a way to accept my cash in a way they feel is safe and I can also do from my computer...

The problem is those two don't go hand in hand very well, not in a timely matter at least.

Yea I guess thats true... I guess I didn't anticipate people not liking paypal..I mean I would even be willing to sending the money first before receiving the BTC..

I don't think your understanding. Bitcoin transactions are not reversible. It is analogous to sending cash in the mail. Once it's in the mailbox... it's gone.

Paypal transaction are reversible for a month. Sending from paypal first doesn't really matter.

Yea see I didn't realize that I guess...but two things.. 1. My paypal is my personal paypal they would have my real name and all my info if I took the money back or whatever your saying couldn't somebody just screw me over? and 2. Is there really no other alternative? It seems that if I had a prepaid credit card and gave somebody the number to put it in their paypal first that would be fine would it not?

Dwolla would be my next best bet.
Use Dwolla to transfer bank money -> Mt. Gox -> BTC
