24325	2001-11-13 02:45:00	I'm running Windows 98 O/S and MSOutlook Express. Compaq hardware. I can connect to the internet okay through 2 service providers, however when I connect to email it prompts me for further authorisation If I reenter username and P/w it comes back with the same box and eventually gives me the following error: 'There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your p/w was rejected Account 'pop3.paradise.net.nz, Server Response: 'ERR authorisation failed, Port 110 Error 0x800CCC90, Error Number 0x800CCC92. The same thing happens if I connect through another service provider. eg xtra. I have recently had a virus and have rebuilt my machine from the compaq re-install CD from scratch. I have reinstalled my apps and added McAffee anti virus software. Internet email worked fine for a couple of days before this happening. Any help, greatly appreciated!	Guest (0)

Check your 'server' settings under 'Properties' for the ISP's (in Outlook Express look under the 'Tools' menu, select 'Accounts' , select the 'Mail' tab, then select an ISP and click 'Properties'). To get mine going again I had to stop the anti virus software from routing my mail through itself. I did this by changing the 'incoming mail' setting from 'localhost' (my computer) to pop3.paradise.net.nz and then re-entering my username. The anti-virus software had appended /pop3.paradise.net.nz to the username). These changes were subsequently reversed by the anti-virus software but this time it connected correctly and I got my mail.	Guest (0)
