After I applied Office XP SP3, Outlook always prompts:
"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""

whenever I create a new e-mail or reply to an e-mail. This is annoying.
How do I disable this prompt if I create a new e-mail or reply to an e-mail?
 
Thanks, Sue.

I tried the following:
- rename Normal.dot
- disable all WORD add-ins

None works. The only option that I have is not using WORD as the Outlook
editor. Not a very good option. I think I just have to put up with the
prompt.

If you have Adobe Acrobat, did you follow the instructions to disable its Outlook add-in?

Sue,

I changed the Adobe Acrobat registry key as per the instruction. It works.
I don't get the nusiance security prompt anymore. Thanks for your help.
