"The connection to the server has failed", error code 0x800CCC0E
Hello,
I have version 6.0.2800 IE and use Outlook Express. I have SP1 and all the latest Critial Updates installed. I have a recurring problem once I have connected (using dial-up) to my ISP. The problem is both with trying to go to *any* Web site (I just get an 'unable to connect to server' message) or access Outlook Express (I get the error message "The connection to the server has failed" along with Port 110, Socket Error 10060, and Error #0x800CCC0E). I have spent a lot of time with my ISP, who haven't helped at all. I have examined the MS Knowledge Base and have found articles 208814 and 302339, but at the bottom of these 2 articles where it states which products and versions the article applies to, it doesn't include the latest versions like I am using. Can anyone help me with this?? Generally what I have to do is disconnect from my ISP and simply try again until I can gain access to Web sites and to my e-mail. What a pain!! Thanks, Doug |

"The connection to the server has failed", error code 0x800CCC0E
Thank you very much for the response. I am using McAfee
A/V version 7 and have the latest upgrades to it. I have indeed disabled e-mail scanning and, once I did, I started getting error messages 0x800CCC0D with socket error 11004. The 2 error messages that I received mentioned not being able to find my SMTP host (port 25) and not being able to find POP3 host (port 110). Any more suggestions gratefully accepted! I'm at whit's end. I am having to re-dial into my ISP up to 6 times before I can finally get into e-mail and be able to surf to *any* Web site. Sheesh! I'm about ready to try another e-mail program, although that won't solve my trouble with Web surfing.

"The connection to the server has failed", error code 0x800CCC0E
Check your settings for POP3 and SMTP servers under Tools/Accounts/Mail tab
for the account involved. Many AV programs reset these to 'localhost' or '127.0.0.1' upon installation and that could be the cause of the problems you are having. For your Internet Explorer problems, might want to post the question in an Internet Explorer newsgroup where you might get better suggestions. -- Jim Pickering, MVP-Outlook Express Please reply only to newsgroup. wrote in message ...

Can anyone help me with this?? Generally what I have to do is disconnect from my ISP and simply try again until I can gain access to Web sites and to my e-mail. What a pain!! Generally speaking, failures to connect to servers are usually a result of DNS issues, a badly configured 'host' file, or typos in server names; depending upon the program generating the error. As mentioned, anti virus mail scanning programs often change the server names in the mail client. This is also true for any other email proxy programs run locally, such as spam filters. You need to make sure that you either configure the proxy chain properly for the connections, or disable the proxies and configure the mail client to directly connect to the server. This last would include using the proper server name in the server field of the program. For surfing, issues can be problems with your ISP's DNS servers, bad configuration of the DUN (so it doesn't see the DNS servers), or bad configuration of a 'hosts' file. Firewalls and SPI routers can also cause these kinds of problems. There is some scumware known to modify the 'host' file to prevent you from reaching sites which offer tools for removing scumware. Without more specific symptoms, I can't offer more specific advice on your surfing difficulties. -- Norman ~Win dain a lotica, En vai tu ri, Si lo ta ~Fin dein a loluca, En dragu a sei lain ~Vi fa-ru les shutai am, En riga-lint |

"The connection to the server has failed", error code 0x800CCC0E
I have some more to add to this nasty little problem as I have had this 0x800CCC0E error message chronically on my systems as well. I have had it come up with Outlook running on Win 9x and Win 2000 Pro with Symantec Enterprise Edition Anti Virus. I have also had a paid visit to Microsoft Support and they gave me a solution that did not work.
The problem and fix I have found is that there is a conflict that can occur between the anti Virus and Outlook that intermittently causes this error message to occur. I found that if you set up Outlook and install the anti virus after all your email settings are established it handle the problem. If you add a new email address or change the settings on the properties you will start to see the error crop up. What you have to do is totally uninstall your anti virus make all the FINAL changes to your email settings and then reinstall anti virus. Evidently once this gets disrupted by changes after the fact it starts to generate errors. What a pain but it seems to get rid of this problem. Hope this helps.
