It is opart of the outlook security package and cannot be disabled. The
intention was to let you kno if a virus is trying to gain access to your
contacts and sending it self out.

But newer versions of the Palm HotSync and Chapura PocketMirror
can do a sync without this message appearing. So it must be a way.
Why can't someone (PalmOne) release a patch for the old HotSync
(can't upgrade to version 4 since that requires PalmOS >3) :-(

I see the security part, but all these messages and stuff are plain
annoying. People with firewalls and anti-viruses are safe anyway.

Palm has an upgrade that will stop the prompt. Get it from their site.

HotSync version 4 requires PalmOS 4 (and that upgrade costs).
If you have PamOS 3.3 newest HotSync patch I can find is 3.1.2
(actually called 3.1.1 Updater, but after install it's 3.1.2).
And that still has this issue (the 3.1.2 update is from 2001).

But if you now a better patch for PalmOS 3.3 please tell me !!!!

It would be best to chck with Palm on their products. MS rollded out SP2
with more then enough notice it was going to happen. It is up to the third
party vendors to update the products to allow compability with the OS.
