Make sure you type CAPITALS and lower case in your password when
required. Some servers check for this.

Make sure you are typing you account name as required. I don't know whether
NTL World wants it with or without @ntlworld.com.

Email scanning should be turned off in any anti-virus. Also exclude EML
files from the scan. It provides no
protection not provided by the regular resident protection.
Besides that, McAfee and Norton are not compatible with Windows Mail and
Outlook Express and should be uninstalled.
