Default How to solve 'A program is trying to send email on your behalf'?

Each time I try to do an email mail merge, I get the message 'A program is
trying to automatically send email on your behalf. Do you want to allow this?
If this is unexpected, it might be a virus and you should choose 'No' ' with
each email address. I want to send my email to a lot of people (100+), so
obviously clicking 'Yes' every time isn't very convenient. How can I change
this so that all the addresses are temporarily accepted automatically?

You can avoid this happening by downloading the "Express ClickYes" utility
that is available as a free download from:

http://www.contextmagic.com/express-clickyes/

Express ClickYes is a tiny program that sits in the taskbar and clicks the
Yes button on behalf of you, when Outlook's Security Guard opens prompt
dialog saying that a program is trying to send an email with Outlook or
access its address book. You can suspend/resume it by double-clicking its
taskbar icon. Developers can automate its behaviour by sending special
messages.
