    Windows Mail hanging on authorizing

    I have Windows Vista Home Premium edition and I am using Windows Live One
    Care. Today there was an update to Windows Live One Care. Now when I open
    windows mail it gets stuck on the authorizing screen and I get this message
    Account: 'shawmail', Server: 'shawmail', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110,
    Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC19

    I have 2 e-mail accounts and the 2nd one works fine but the first one does
    not, I have not changed anything, it was working fine yesterday. I even
    deleted and remade both accounts and it still does the same thing. If I
    leave windows mail open eventually it will get past the authorizing and it
    will receive the e-mails but it is very slow on my regular e-mail address.
    This is really annoying anyone have any ideas?

    Thx in advance

    I believe I have found the problem I had windows live one care run a full
    virus and spyware scan and it found a Trojan that I had it remove and now
    windows mail is working properly again. How I got that dam trojan is beyond
    me, but I'm glad everything is working again. Thanks for all your replies.
