Ever since I installed the new Office service pack three
the other day, Outlook (XP) keeps generating the
following pop-up every time an e-mail comes in, and I
have to click close several time to get it to go away:

"A program is trying to access e-mail addresses you have
stored in Outlook. Do you want to allow this?

If this is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should
choose "No"."

Any ideas on how to get rid of this? Virus definitions
are up to date and system has been scanned. This happen
for EVERY e-mail. Thanks for any help. -- Brian
 
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.

Diane,

Thanks very much. I was usining Spamnet Add-in. I went
to Tools --> Options --> Other --> Advanced Options -->
COM Add-Ins and unchecked Cloudmark Spamnet, and it's not
happening anymore. You are great!
