I just updated to 4.5 home and now I get a "socket error #10061 connection refused"when Pop Tray email notifier tries to get out and check my email.
I uninstalled 4.5 and reinstalled 4.1 to make sure it was avast causing the problem. It is… How do I resolve this issue? I’m running XP Home Thank you.

Thanks I have fixed the problem… For those who use PopTray… in your accounts tab just change the port number to 12110 and that should do it . Do not change anything else. :smiley:

I use PopTray and I never had to change anything. Everything worked perfectly since the very first second I upgraded to 4.5

Windows XP Professional SP2 (all updates)
Cheers !
