I keep trying to connect to Outlook Express, but I keep getting the same message, "Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. Account: 'mail.netins.net', Server: 'mail.netins.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F". It started doing this a couple of weeks ago. I have called my ISP five times and the techs there repeatedly give me the same advice after they attempt to walk me through all the steps that they feel should rectify the problem...and that is to take the computer to a repair shop.
I can't keep a connection long enough to either send or to receive e-mail messages.
I have a Yahoo mail account and am able to receive and send e-mail there and I am able to get and keep my IE connection.
Does this make any sense to anyone?
I have run all kinds of spyware and it all says my system is virus free.
Can anyone help me?
Thank you,
