Have just been trouble shooting a friends PC after emails stopped coming in to Outlook 2003 earlier this week.
Webmail & SMTP outgoing was OK, but POP3 incoming email errors occurred.
The Error apparently originally related to Norton AV, but disabling Avast (free) temporarily fixed the problem - have left email scanning off in the meantime.
Hope this helps someone.

never run multiple AVโฆand disable one is not enough, you need to uninstall
it is also recomended to run a removal tool to clear any leftover files that can conflict
