Hi:

I'm hoping that someone can help with this.

After installing Office XP Service Pack 3, several users in the office are
receiving the: "A program is trying to access e-mail addresses...." alerts
every time an email is sent, . Anyone know what's causing this.

The folks experiencing this are running Office XP, on WinXP pro, connected
to an Exchange server

Thanks for any advice.

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.

Hi Diane:

Thanks for the prompt response.

I don't think that this is a result of third party vendor software. I
should have mentioned out that the alert is popping up whenever a message is
sent from within Outlook, not when another application (such as hotsync) is
accessing Outlook.

Hi again Diane:

I see there was some MSWord stuff mentioned in the slapstick piece. I'll
pursue that.

Thanks for your help.
