connetion problem

I get the following error:

The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'pop-server.nycap.rr.com',
Server: 'pop-server.nycap.rr.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL):
No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

How can I fix this?

Thanks.

This problem can be caused by some antivirus programs.
Windows Mail is not compatible with most McAfee and Norton
security programs. Those will need to be uninstalled, not just
disabled.

After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, download
and install a more compatible antivirus like the free Avast:

Even compatible antivirus programs will need to have their
email scanning option turned off. For more on this topic see
