I've gotten this from the MS Office website in regards to outlook 2003: "This message appears if a program tries to access your Address Book. In general, you cannot prevent this caution from appearing. However, check with your synchronization software vendor to see if recent updates to the vendor's software include interacting with Outlook in a trusted manner. This message is not displayed when Outlook interacts with trusted synchronization software." I think this applies to all previous versions of outlook that have had all their patches installed. Perhaps it would be possible to get CF registered as trusted syncronisation software (I have no idea how this can be done) but that would stop warning messages without compromising security. I've also found this software http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/security/ , Which appears to be free and looks like it might validate the source program of the request, so presumable customer focus could be added and allowed access. I will test this as it is something that could be useful for another piece of software that we are using. I'll keep you posted.
