Another program is trying to access outlook

I recently set someone up on Outlook 2000, and now everytime they try to send
an email message the popup for 'another program is trying to access outlook'
everytime. They hit yes and the email then sends. How do you fix this?

The email security features contained in updates to Outlook add additional
actions to the list of those that are affected. Antivirus and antispam
add-ins are a common cause although others are affected by the changes as
well (Adobe Acrobat's Outlook addin called PDFMaker is a very common one).
As a result, one of your add-ins or programs that access your Outlook
Address Book needs to be updated to the latest version. 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 security prompt.
