OE6 Problems

[Rick A.]

A friend is having problems with OE6, he started
having "Popup","Spyware" and "Virus" problems. I loaded
Spyblaster, Adaware & 12Ghost, that fixed that problem,
but he said he can't get his e-mail now. I know several
people running the same configuration without any
problems. I have disabled everything I loaded and even
disabled Mcafee Security and still no luck. He gets
a "Connection to the server has failed" error and it's
very very quick. I have never seen that error that quick.
He has talked with the cable company and they said
everythings Ok. Still can't get his mail. Any ideas,
Please???
Thanks
Rick A.

Check the SMTP settings on the client and make sure the firewall doesn't
block OE to access the Internet
