Hi

If you have Outlook XP with the latest SP or fixes installed, every time when the synchronisation of the P800 starts, Outlook comes up with a security warning about an application which is trying to access Outlook.

To automatically allow this, there's a Tool to click the 'Yes' button in that messagebox. It's even free.

Beware, though

... This also allows any other program to use Outlook and it's data (email addresses etc.) without possible you noticing. Your own risk ...

Yeah... this clickyes has been mentioned a few times here already but I personally prefer the one-click do-it-myself than the possibility that some virus might send mail to my whole contact list.

Is clicking yes once really such a problem?

I think it would be nice if microsoft provided a way for properly certified software to bypass this check in the way activesync for pocketpc does.

What I don't understand is, that when I sync my Clie with Outlook XP I don't get this warning message...only with the P800.

So apparantly there is a way to get around this problem.

@georgia

Doesn't matter what you are using, bt or cable - it's an Outlook thing.

@jensb

Yes, there is a way around; if you are using ActiveSync (Windows CE devices), you don't get that message, either. I guess it's just not very documented by MS

@masseur

That's why I wrote Beware ...

ClickYes can be temporarily disabled (right click on the icon in the tray).

Ah! so I can install clickyes but have it disabled... then when I want to sync I can right click on clickyes and enable it so it can clickyes for me, then when sync is finished I can right click clickyes and disable it again?

Sorry... just being a smart-ar*e!, but I do wonder why someone would install it and then disable it?
