Alright, I first went to the IRC chat to ask this question but no one was available to answer.  To make it easier, I'll just provide a quote from what I said there.

<Majoraslayer> I've contacted my ISP, and they referred me to ask here.  I can still log in to web mail, but I can't get Outlook or Outlook express to connect to the POP3 server.  If I change the port to 80 (HTTP) it can find the servers, but it can't log in.  With the default port it has always used, it can't even find the servers.

What are the POP3 Settings for your account? I strongly doubt that Messenger Plus! is the culprit here but we can try and help anyways.

With the default account settings (port numbers mainly) what is the error code given to you from Outlook Express? If you take your POP3 mail server address can you ping it without any problems?

To ping the mail server goto:
> Start
> Run
> cmd *click ok *
> type ping mailserver (where mailserver is the POP3 mailserver you have specified.

What are the results of this?

Oh, hold on; I figured it out.  For some reason PeerGuardian suddenly started blocking it.  Thanks for the help anyway!
