Greetings.

I recently bought a new Dell, wiped the drive, performed a clean
install of my own licensed copies of XP Pro and Office XP Pro, and
migrated all my settings from my old computer. For a few glorious days
I enjoyed newfound speediness with no glitches whatsoever. Now I am
running into the following message when I reply to a message in
Outlook: "A program is trying to access email addresses you have
stored in Outlook. Do you want to allow this?"

If I click Yes or No the new message window opens; both do the same
thing. (Of course, clicking Yes means that I won't see the error
message for XXXX minutes.) This started yesterday after downloading
Office XP SP3.

I use Norton AV 2003 and have run its virus check, along with:
Stinger, Panda Online, SpySweeper, and AdAware. They all gave a clean
bill of health.

The only programs that are running in the background are PureText
(converts rich clipboard contents to plain text for pasting-freeware)
and Scpoeware Vision (file search utility-licensed copy).

Thoughts? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Teddy
