A program is trying to access e-mail

[Lloyd]

Downloaded and installed the Outlook XP service pack.
Since then the following message intermittently pops up:
"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 say 'NO'."
The corporate anti-virus is up-to-date and running
successfully. How do I find out what program is trying to
use my e-mail addresses? Thank you. Lloyd in Indy.

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.

http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2002sp3.htm#problems has a list of
applications known to trigger the warning.
