Outlook conflict with Norton anti-spam

G

Guest

I've just installed the latest critical patch for Outlook. However, now when I'm using Outlook and I select an email as a spam with my Norton This is Spam button, Outlook brings up a message about third party software trying to access my email addresses. When I click that that's okay, Outlook pretty much freezes. I can access emails, but all the Outlook commands won't work. I can't even close Outlook. I have to do a Ctrl, Alt, Del and close down and End Task. I never had this problem before I installed the latest patch

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.

To learn how to program around the new properties (which is needed for the
macros to work with OL2003 too) see http://www.outlookcode.com/d/sec.htm

IHateSpam released an update by 6PM Thursday - look for links on their
support page. Cloudmark is working on an update - Norton will have an update
available soon too. Newsgator has an update ready....
