  1. Newt:

    The fact that you got a No at the beginning of the error indicates an issue with the port your PC is trying to use.

     

    What email program are you using?

     

    Can you send but just not receive?

     

    Not likely to be caused by anti-virus software unless you are running McAfee (which has been known to cause this behavior) and an older version of IE (4.x maybe) on Win95/98.

     

    Very possible with firewall software that isn't configured just right.

    SUSSED IT!!

    I uninstalled Norton and Lo and Behold email works again! I have reinstalled and everything seems fine now?

    I am using Outlook Express 6. I couldn't send or receive mail. Web surfing OK.

    Anyway all OK now, Thanks for your help Newt.

    I have tried both of these would be solutions but to no avail??

    Funny I can still use the web?

    Why has this suddenly happened?

    I have both Firewall and Antivirus software in use. Could the antivirus be causing a problem?

  4. I am getting an error message when trying to retrieve my mail. No. socket error 10061. I have checked all my email settings and all seem OK. I have also tried another ISP with the same result. Obviously I can still surf the net but no email. Any ideas?

  6. The priest in a small Irish village was very fond of the chickens he kept in the hen house out back of the parish manse. He had a cock rooster and about ten hens. One Saturday night the cock rooster was missing and as that was the time he suspected cock fights occurred in the village he decided to do something about it at church the next morning.

     

    At Mass, he asked the congregation

    "Has anybody got a cock?" - all the men stood up.

     

    "No No" he said "That wasn't what I meant. Has anybody seen a cock?" - all the women stood up.

     

    "No No" he said "That wasn't what I meant. Has anybody seen a cock that doesn't belong to them." - half the women stood up.

     

    ”No No" he said "That wasn't what I meant. Has anybody seen my

    cock?" - All the nuns stood up.

  8. Do we know where in the Uk he will be based? If he is in the Anglia region, give him my email address and I will help him on reservoirs. However I suspect it is river fishing he will be looking for and there is very little of this in my area. Now if he wants to go to County Mayo I can help there as well

  9. This was found in the Mayo News last week

    "A local councillor wanted to pay a bill from the USA for 350 dollars, which he just happened to have in cash. Went to local bank, 'sorry sir, we will have to buy your dollars and sell you euros, then you can buy a money order in dollars and pay your bill'. OK says our councillor! That will be 30 Euros says the bank! B@ll@*ks says our councillor!"
