Default Outlook 2000 System Information tries to access Address Book

From Our good friends at www.slipstick.com we find the following:

The "object model guard" feature of the patch imposes two
extreme restrictions on automating Outlook from add-ins
that use CDO:

a.. If an add-in tries to send an Outlook message, the user gets
a notification pop-up and must explicitly authorize or deny
each attempt to send. The user must wait 5 seconds before
the Yes button becomes available to click.

b.. If an add-in tries to access either a Contacts folder or the
address book or save an Outlook item as a file, the user
gets a notification pop-up and can deny access, authorize
a one-time access or extend access for a period of
several minutes.

I would look into "Advanced Security for Outlook" by MAPI Lab:

Hi All,

Has anyone come across this, and if so, any suggestions? When some of our
users try to look at their System Information in Oulook 2000
(Help/About/System Info/Outlook/Summary), Outlook pops up the Address Book
access warning ( A program is trying to access e-mail addresses... Allow
access for X minutes, etc.).

I've not seen this before and hope someone can help. Thanks
