I receive the following message each time I try to reply
to an email message or send a message from my darft
folder:

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".

I don't think I have a virus. I think it's just being
triggered when I reply/send.

How do I fix the problem so the message does not keep
coming up?

Thanks.
 
Did you install SP3? Outlook 2002 SP3 adds additional properties to the list
of those that are affected by the security features. As a result, one of
your add-ins needs updated to the latest version - antispam add-ins are a
common cause although others are affected by the changes as well. Many
add-ins were updated following the release of Outlook 2003 and should work
with SP3, if not you'll need to contact the vendor for a newer version.

http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2002sp3.htm#problems has a list of
applications known to trigger the warning.

To learn how to program around the new properties (which is needed for the
macros to work with OL2003 too) see http://www.outlookcode.com/d/sec.htm
