I am using a windows 7 machine as server for internet, this machine connects to router and LAN switch. And would like to use the same machine as email server using Vpop3, I have installed vpop3 but when i start it its giving me this error; pop3 server not started-couldn't bind socket(port110)10013[an attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions.]. I have tried to disable firewall and Mcafee antivirus but no change. Please help.

Hello, I have the same issue with Windows 7 laptop. unable to connect to the network and if I try ipconfig/renew I receive error an attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions Any idea on whats wrong? I have tried netsh winsock reset, uninstalling the wireless adapter from device manager and reinstalling the drivers but no changes. same error. it started after my laptop installed automatic windows update last night. Windows built in Restore utility is a crap and doesn't work.. it fails I tried it twice as well.
