Thanks for your reply. So far, the new Outlook warning is an annoyance, but
it means I must say yes to 10-minutes of access in order for Spam Inspector
to do its thing. I hate to disable the program, because I receive at least
300 spams per day. Problem is, I leave for a week vacation soon and ISP may
not accept and store that many emails while I'm gone.

I question why MS didn't give me the option to identify the suspect program
and then say I want it always to be able to access Outlook Contacts. Why is
it just a yes or no? Norton Internet Security gives me the option to allow
access for specific programs, why didn't MS do the same?
