    error message 0x800ccc92

    I just installed fresh Windows Vista on my old HP laptop however there is no problem running Vista on the same. Today morning I set up Windows mail with few of my POP3 accounts, everything went fine without any error. But now when I go to send or receive emails, it keeps on poping up a small windows asking for username and password.

    So far I might have enter my username and password more than 50 times, but still it keeps on coming up. When I cancel the popup, I get the following error:

    account:'pop-server.nc.rr.com, protocol: POP3, server response:-'ERR authentication failed: Port:110 secure(SSL) no server Error:0x800ccc90 error number:0x800ccc92.

    Any working suggestions please?

    Have you installed McAfee or Norton on your system? If yes, just make sure that email scanning is OFF. Because these security suites scans all your emails and though they wont be malicious, the block them. Most of the time even after disabling Email Scanning or disabling the Antivirus itself, such problem occurs. So better you should just remove them and install AVG free edition. It is compatible with Windows Mail.

    Apart from this, also make sure go to Tools, your account properties and under server tab, make sure the box for Log on using secure password authentication is unchecked.,
