No bug is involved. There is definitely some program accessing Outlook.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to know exactly what program that might
be. Did you check the Windows registry for addins registered in
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\? If you find some there
besides VBA, make a registry backup, then change the LoadBehavior from 3 to
2, then restart Outlook.
You might also want to run msconfig and disable any applications that run at
startup to see if one of those might be involved.

I have followed every single option available on this board--disabled Word
as my editor, removed ALL COM add-ins, disabled antivirus software, updated
everything I own, made all changes for Acrobat according to the
slipstick.com instructions, disabled/uninstalled/removed SpamDeputy
add-in--and I STILL get this stupid message!! Nothing is working, short of
installing the ClickYes program; however, this keeps the monitor from 'going
to sleep' after my pre-set time, as it fools the computer timer into
thinking that the computer is still active. Can someone give some suggestion
as to what to do next? Or is Micro$oft just going to hobble around until
someone else figures out what this bug is? HELP ME!

OK, so I've been using Outlook XP with Windows XP Pro for over a year
now. I installed SP3 today, and all of a sudden, I get a message about "A
program is trying to access e-mail addresses you have stored in Outlook. Do
you want to allow this?" It happens CONSTANTLY! After I've chosen 10
minutes, it will then go away--for 10 minutes. What is this stupid thing,
and how do I get rid of it? Uninstalling Office is my next method of
madness, short of throwing this thing out the window. Someone please help!
