Default Why can't I send MP3s in OE6?

OS:XP Pro, OE6.

When I try to send an MP3 as an attachment (3meg), I get this:

A time-out occurred while communicating with the server. Subject 'vvv',
Account: 'mail.comcast.net', Server: 'SMTP.COMCAST.NET', Protocol: SMTP,
Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC19

I've increased the time out span to 3min with no change.

I can send other files ie: photos larger in size, with no problems. Any
ideas and thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.
Bob

Do you have your anti-virus set to scan outgoing mail? That's
unnecessary and can cause problems sending attachments. It could be
that the anti-virus is skipping image files but trying to virus check
the MP3 files.

You know what Mike? I did try that and it still did the same thing. I just
went back in and tried disabling once again and it worked. Maybe I didn't
save my settings the first time I did it, Thanks for your help.

I'm glad that helped.

It seems that computers often have a mind of their own and settings seem
to get changed for no apparent reason or changes don't seem to stick.
