Default POP3 authentication issue

I have setup a POP3 account in Outlook XP. When I click the test button to
test the settings, everything works fine. After about 20 minutes I start
getting a dialog asking for the username/password for the POP3 server. Even
if I check the remember password box, the dialog keeps popping up. I have
also checked the remember password box when I setup the account in Outlook.
Any ideas what is causing this?

Thanks,

Default POP3 authentication issue

This did not work for me. Any other ideas? I renamed the users profile in
the XP machine and recreated it, but this did not help either.

Thanks
