Pop3Trap.Exe is a component of Trend-Micro. Essentially it "Hooks"
into the mail to provide scanning. You should check Trend-Micro's
web site for updates to your product & make sure that it is compliant
with Hotmail. It's possible a recent change to either Hotmail or TM
may have introduced this issue.
