Have you tried this -

Have you tried to telnet it as they may be an offending mail blocking your download etc.

To telnet it try the following -

To telnet the mail server:
Click onto Start then Run
type telnet pop.ntlworld.com 110 - press enter
+OK InterMail POP3 server ready.
type user then a space then your user.name - press enter
+OK please send PASS command
type pass then a space then your password - press enter
+OK user.name is welcome here

This logs you into the pop server.

type list.

Identify the mail you think is causing the problem and type DELE 1 or whichever number corresponds.

Then type quit to close the telnet connection.

That should then bin the offending mail.

Hope it helps.
