Address Book Access

I recently downloaded an update for my MS Office Pro from
the MS website. Directly afterwards and ever since,
whenever a piece of spam slips through into my Inbox and I
add it to the list of spam (using Norton) I get the
following message:
"A program is trying to access addresses you have stored
in Outlook. Do you want to allow this?" "If this is
unexpected you should click on NO".
I keep clicking on NO for each piece of spam but it keeps
on happening for every piece of spam I get. How can I
determine whether it is MS (or not) who is trying to
access my mailbox?
In the meantime I keep clicking on NO but is time
consuming. Please. How can I stop this.Thanks.

I posted a message regarding this also. I have the exact
same problem. If you find out anything, would you please
let me know? I'll do the same for you....

Thanks!

Outlook 2002 SP3 adds additional properties to the list of those that are
affected by the security features. As a result, one of your add-ins needs
updated to the latest version - antispam add-ins are a common cause
although others are affected by the changes as well. Many add-ins were
updated following the release of Outlook 2003 and should work with SP3, if
not you'll need to contact the vendor for a newer version.

applications known to trigger the warning.
