For the last 2 or 3 days I have been receiving the above message when accessing emails. I have experienced this problem occasionally in the past and for a day at most, the problem usually associated with virginmedia. However this is now proving to be disruptive and I don't where the problem lies, with Thunderbird or Virgin. None of my settings etc. have been changed and I can access everything if I go directly to the virginmedia website but the handling of the emails is cumbersome. Any ideas?

Most probably your antivirus program. Very common for them to mess up, post a Thunderbird update.
