Hi Greg,

Sure, if you posted your Outlook version.
These prompts are from the Outlook Email Security Updates contained in all
current versions of Outlook and in all Service Packs after SP1 for Outlook
2000. These updates add additional actions to the list of those that are
blocked from accessing the Outlook Address Book. Antivirus and antispam
add-ins are a common cause and others may be affected as well (for example,
Adobe Acrobat's Outlook addin called PDFMaker is a very common one). As a
result, one of the add-ins or programs you are using that access your
Outlook Address Book needs to be updated. Many add-ins were updated
following the release of Outlook 2003 and should work. 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 security prompt.

Greg -

We've been distributing a (beta) version of an Outlook anti-spam plugin
(www.TekGuard.com) for a while that gets around the security prompt
using a COM object called "Outlook Redemption" from
http://www.dimastr.com/redemption.

It basically gives you access to most of the Outlook objects without
triggering the security prompt.

It will work from a bunch of languages; we use C#. To give you a
floavor of the function calls, here's a small code snippet:

<snippet>

// Create an instance of Redemption.SafeMailItem
Redemption.SafeMailItem SafeItem = new Redemption.SafeMailItem();
// Set Item property
SafeItem.Item = MailItem;
// Get name
Name = SafeItem.SenderName;
// Release objects
SafeItem = null;

</snippet>
