Outlook is Stealing Focus From Itself

I have Outlook set to prompt me for a password when I log on. Every
single time I start Outlook, it shows the "Enter password" dialog box.
Then when I go to type in it, the main Outlook window steals the focus
from the password box. I have to take my hands from the keyboard, use
the mouse to get focus back to the password dialog, and then remember
where in my password I left off and finish it.

Is there any way to get Outlook to stop stealing focus from itself?

Thanks.

Do you have any add-ins like Plaxo?

It just happens as soon as Outlook displays the contents of the Inbox.
It's like focus shifts from the password box to the Inbox's list of
messages.
