This sounds much more like interference by Norton's antivirus/firewall setup than anything else. If so then changing the Hotmail options will have no effect.
What may help is switching the POP/SMTP ports you use in the in the main Webmail extension and in the Hotmail account in Thunderbird to higher values ... say .... 1110 and 1025. Remember that you will need to change the main Webmail extension, the Thunderbird server setting for the Hotmail account and the port in the Thunderbird SMTP entry for Hotmail. Hopefully Norton will leave the higher port numbers alone.
