inoperative Windows Mail

About two weeks ago I found I could no longer send/receive email on my 6-moth
old laptop which had had no such problem previously.
I get the message "Connection to Server failed. Protocol POP3 Part 110
Secure (SSL) No. Socket error 10061 Error number 0x800CCC0E.
I have checked settings, password and username as supplied by my ISP. I have
tried Thunderbird and reloading broadband and email settings from the CD
originally provided. However although I have this email problem I can still
access the internet.
Any comments welcome.
