warning

[Nick]

Hello all,

After installing Office XP SP3, i get the following
message:

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.

i have gone on the ms website and it mentions to check any
com add-ins, etc. i also have checked for any viruses.

if this is some safety feature, can i disbale it?

Thanks in advance

It's a known issue with SP3; security has been updated to more closely match
the security in Outlook 2003. You may be able to get around the problem by
either disabling Word as your e-mail editor or updating some of your
add-ins, especially virus scanners and spam filters (many major
manufacturers have already released compatible updates). See the following
articles for more information:
