I'm suddenly getting this warning I've never seen before: "A program is
trying to access e-mail addresses you have stored in Outlook. Do you want
to allow this?" I'm not too sure what could be causing this. The only
programs I've recently installed which I can relate to Outlook at all are
Hotmail Popper, YahooPOPs, and MrPostman. I've scanned my system for
viruses, but AVG turns up nothing. Can anybody please provide any
information? Thanks in advance.

Forgot to mention: this alert is only happening when I hit "Send" on newly
composed mail messages.

Never mind that correction, it just happened again while I was writing a
message.
 
I had the same problem, until I removed the "Business Contact Manager". Did
you install that?

What's the Business Contact Manager? After briefly searching through this
newsgroup, it appears to me that it's a feature of the Outlook 2003 beta.
Sorry for not having pointed out that I'm using Outlook XP. I wasn't able
to find anything on this in XP's documentation, and I don't recall ever
having installed a program by that title. Can you please tell me how to
remove this component? Thanks.
