When you try to send an e-mail message, you may receive the following message one or more times:
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 choose "No".
CAUSE

E-mail Security Update. The Outlook E-mail Security Update
provides additional levels of protection against malicious
e-mail messages. The update changes the way that
Outlook handles attachments and the way that Outlook
can be controlled programmatically.
