Final appeal for OE assistance!

HI, well, I have spent the last week trying to fix or repair my Outlook
Express connection. Here is what I did in conjunction with help from my
ISP. I removed and reinstalled IE6 and Outlook Express, used every
antispyware proggie known to get rid of all that junk. I formed a new
identity, changed all the dbx etc. files to negate that possible
problem. In other words, all that can physically be done to eradicate
this error, the 11001 port and the other one, please don't ask me to
look that up again, as I would have to go way way back, haah!

So, bottom line, none of if worked. I am still getting the error
message when Outlook Express tries to connect but I can hit Send and
Receive and it works, and stays working until I shutdown and then it
occurs as soon as I go online again. Personallly I think it is on my
ISP end, something causing the port to close when going to check new
messages. They say it isn't but how can it be my computer? My
experience is when these routings or rootings get established they can'
t be changed unless a complete wipe of hard drive or some other drastic
measure is taken. So, last appeal, my OS is Windows 98SE, I connnect
via modem. If you can come up with some other method I need to be
making then please direct me. Also, thanks for all the assistance, much
appreciated, Derek
