Can anyone please shed some light as to why I get the following error using outlook to connect to my hotmail email account:

An unknown error has occurred. Account: 'my account', Server: 'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp', Protocol: HTTPMail, Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 12019, Error Number: 0x80004005

Unable to poll for new messages on your HTTP server. Account: 'my account', Server: 'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp', Protocol: HTTPMail, Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 12019, Error Number: 0x80004005

Strangely enough I cannot check my email using a browser either.

I am not that technically minded, so any help would be appreciated.
