Outlook - a program is trying to access e-mail addresses

[Guest]

I am receiving a message each time I get an e-mail. The message states "A
prgram is trying to access e-mail addresses you have stored in outlook. Do
you want to allow this?"

How do I stop this message from appearing?

What version of Outlook, AV and what COM Add-ins do you have?

I am using Outlook 2002 With SP3 intalled. There are NO add-ins

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 and fixes.

It turns out that I had Spam Inspector still installed. Removing it cleared
up the problem. Thank you for your help.

I bet you have Adobe installed - see this page:
