Oitlook 2002 SP3

[B wanless]

After installing the SP3 patch for Outlook 2002, I'm
getting forced to manually allow access to the Address
Book. I am using Word as the editor. The message is "A
program is trying to access your Address Book". You can
say yes for this one instance, allow for a period of time
up to 10 minutes, and decline. I assume this must be a
new virus security measure, but it is a pain.

Is there a way to override this feature?

You might try renaming your normal.dot file and then restart Word. If
you don't need to use Word as the editor you might consider turning it
off.
