Microsoft Connector for POP3 Mailboxes won't start!

[cwhiteuk]

Hi

Just come in this morning and have the following error in the event log,

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Service Control Manager
Event Category: None
Event ID: 7031
Date: 28/02/2005
Time: 09:29:10
User: N/A
Computer: COMPUTER-GSL8Z8
Description:
The Microsoft Connector for POP3 Mailboxes service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 1 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 600000 milliseconds: Restart the service.

The service stopped at 20:00 Friday evening and has been trying to restart since then.

I've restarted the server which hasn't helped.

Stopped all McAfee service in case they are interfering with it and that hasn't helped.

Any ideas?

Chris
