Outlook & Norton AntiSpam

[gener]

We recently moved to Office Professional. Norton AntiSpam is also installed.
Occasionally a Spam message ends up in the InBox; most are deflected.
AntiSpam provides a button to declair these Spam messages as such. Before
the move to Professional these Spam messages could be added to moved to the
Norton AntiSpam Folder. After the move, we get an Information message from
Outlook stating that "A program is trying to access email addresses..." and
"If this is unexpected ..." with an allow or disallow option. If we
disallow then the message fades but reappears If we disallow a second time
then the usual Norton AntiSpam messages appear.

Why do we now get this warning from Outlook?
Why does is reappear?
How can we stop it?

Run LiveUpdate to see if there's an update for Norton.

See whether Symantec's website is of any help. It's their issue.

Not that it matters in this forum but Symantec is of no help. Any queries to
them are automatically noted witht the promise of an answer but no reply is

I have the same message when I click on the "This is Spam" button. I now get
the box that states "A program is trying to access..." It gives you a time
frame to allow the access, which at most is ten minutes. It is simply an
annoying process every time it comes on.

This is a new thing. Norton web help search proved futile. What I would
like to do is completely turn off this feature. Any ideas?

Using: Norton Internet Security 2004 and Outlook 2002 with all updates
current on both ends.

Thanks anybody.

Since Outlook doesn't have a "This is Spam" button, the message is being
caused by an Outlook add-in (probably part of the NIS suite) that does not
conform to the Outlook security model. Contact the vendor of that program
(probably Symantec) for a fix.

I'll give it a shot.

Thank you.

I have the same problem with "This is spam button". Any help would be
appreciated. Found this thread after being fed up with this probably since
SP3. PITA
