outlook espress / winsock errors

If maxd's suggestion does not work post a hijackthis log for me to check, as lots of malware infect in that way.
------------------------
A post of a hijackthis log for the experts to advise.
HijackThis From Here
Important: Create a folder on the C: drive called C:\HJT.
You can do this by going to My Computer (Windows key+e) then double click on C: then right click and select New then Folder and name it HJT.
Unzip HijackThis into this folder. When you run HijackThis from this folder and have it "Fixed checked" it will create a backup file of modifications to use if restore is necessary. Then run, scan, save log, then in notepad copy the FULL log by copy and paste as a reply to this post and an expert with HijackThis Knowldge, will have a go at giving advice. Please note the list of experts names below, very few forum regulars here have had this training.

DO NOT FIX ANYTHING WITH HIJACKTHIS WITHOUT EXPERT ADVICE, most of what it finds you need for normal MS Windows tasks.

Do read the sites FAQ before posting, and advise your problem and what steps you have already done to try to cure your problem.

I, and the other hijack experts mentioned above, are in all those sites (and more) with the same login names. You might get one of us at those sites also to anwser your log, but other experts will also be available.

If you're using the McAfee Firewall I believe the temporary answer is to uncheck it. Go to Start|run and type in: msconfig

When it comes up, click the Startup tab and uncheck the entry Mcvsshld.exe

Restart your computer and test your email. If that fixes it you should get a new firewall, like Zone Alarm.

This can also be caused by a virus or other things.
