Hi, I haven't read the full posting, but I recognise the error #.
10053 are common in the last week with a big client of ours.. What causes them (in our case) is poor connectivity including firewalls. The computer trying to connect can't make a connection, but it isn't reaching the destination. I can explain in detail the packet sequence that causes this but it would be boring. This error is practically the same as connection refused, but that a firewall in the middle is probably doing the refusal.
