program trying to access addr book pop-up

[Jan Nichols]

After the last office update was installed, a number of
machines in our office have a pop-up in Outlook that
says " a program is trying to access email addresses you
have stored in Outlook. Do you want to allow this. We
are using internet email, word as our editor. The only
change was the new update. It seems to happen whenever
we check email, receive email or create a message. Any
ideas as to why this is now happening? How do I stop
it? 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.

http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2002sp3.htm#problems has a list of
applications known to trigger the warning.

applications likely to be causing this and links to updates for them.
