    Socket error 10060, 0x800CCC0E

    After installing a certain free anti virus system, when I try to access my email server, I get the message...
    The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'pop.suddenlink.net',
    Server: 'pop.sudden link.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No,
    Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
    What causes this and how do I correct it?

    2 possibilities that I am aware of

    (1) Your Anti Virus is set to scan incoming and outgoing emails
    (2) Port number is incorrect

    According to this link, you should have Secure Password Authentication 'unchecked'.

    Let us know which antivirus system. Many of them need a custom install that leaves out the part for scanning email. Some will stop causing problems if you just tell them to turn off the part for scanning email.
