Annoying "enter network password" popup

Hello,
I use Outlook for my email and have fsnet and yahoo email accounts that are retrieved via POP3.
Today, I keep getting a popup saying :Enter Network Password" and the username and password fields relating to the Yahoo account.
Clicking OK does nothing. If I click cancel, it kills the popup only for it to return a few minutes later.
Any ideas what the problem could be?
Thanks

Edit: I am running XP, all up to date

    For info, if anyone else gets this problem...
    It seems yahoo made a change on my account, I logged on via the web and checked my POP options, POP forwarding had been turned off!
    Checked the POP forwarding option and everything now seems ok.
    Maybe yahoo are making some changes to their email...
