Recently getting the above error when trying to connect to Hotmail, via Outlook Express 6. I can get my mail from Gmail, so I know that Outlook is not being blocked by my firewall, but I can't think of why it wouldn't work. Any ideas/solutions?

I can manually log into my accounts, but I prefer using OE6, as its less time consuming.
