Default Security question when Hotsyncing after installing Office SP3

It is opart of the outlook security package and cannot be disabled. The
intention was to let you kno if a virus is trying to gain access to your
contacts and sending it self out.

After I installed MS Office SP3 I get an annoying questions each time
I "Hotsync" my Palm desktop (I use norwegian Office, but I'll guess it
would be something like this in the english version of Office 2000):

"A program tried to access e-mail adresses you have stored in Outlook.
Do you want to permit this? If this is unexpected it might be a virus,
and then you should choose "No" - Allow access for (select minutes)"

1) Why does this come each time I "hotsync" (Hotsync is no virus)
2) Is there a way to tell Outlook that "hotsync" is allowed ALWAYS

This message really annoy me, and I'd like to get rid of it :-)

PS! Is it a possibilty to replace the file that asks this question
with an older one (before it start asking) to get rid of it?

Palm has an upgrade that will stop the prompt. Get it from their site.

It would be best to chck with Palm on their products. MS rollded out SP2
with more then enough notice it was going to happen. It is up to the third
party vendors to update the products to allow compability with the OS.

I am afraid that is one of the drawbacks of running older software. When
Palm OS is up to version 5 or 6 (not sure about the current version),
support for older versions such as 3.x is dropped.

| HotSync version 4 requires PalmOS 4 (and that upgrade costs).
| If you have PamOS 3.3 newest HotSync patch I can find is 3.1.2
| (actually called 3.1.1 Updater, but after install it's 3.1.2).
| And that still has this issue (the 3.1.2 update is from 2001).
|
| But if you now a better patch for PalmOS 3.3 please tell me !!!!
