Default Outlook 2000 System Information tries to access Address Book

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

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:
