Agrivated Windows Mail User

New user of Windows vista and already hating it. I used to be able to
receive emails - just got the computer a week ago and when I first set
everything up I was able to receive me emails. Now, I am assuming it is due
to an update or a firewall overprotection or a nortons overprotection,
something has changed and now, although I can get to the point of loggin in
to my email server (it shows it is connected and the number of emails it wil
downloading) I get the dreaded time out error. I can send just fine. Just
can't receive. I am so agrivated after spending, oh, about 3 dyas now
looking at posts and forums to no avail. I can go to my work computer and
get my emails fine so it is just on this system when all my info is exactly
the same.

I have turned off the firewalls, even turned off Nortons to no avail.

WHAT AM I MISSING!!! Arrggg...
