We have just installed some Outlook 2000 updates including security fixes.
Now, whenever we send an e-mail from Maximizer, we get two warning messages from Outlook that another program is trying to use Outlook (eg. send a message, access address book). This happend for every e-mail address in the selected contact list, which can be dozens.
Is there a fix for this please - or where is the problem?

That's the way the Outlook E-mail Security Update works. It's very intrusive and, unless you're running Exchange Server, completely un-configurable. It also cannot be uninstalled without completely removing Office, and even then it can sometimes linger depending on how thoroughly you clean up after the Office uninstall. However, this might help:

Thank you for the response. We are ploughing through the 'slapstick' document you mentioned.

Surely Multiactive and Microsoft will have to fix this somehow or Maximizer (and many other products) are going to stop working anyway when 2002 is more pervasive.

We are running Exchange Server but cannot find any option in the configuration that helps. Any ideas?

You obviously haven't ploughed very far. Look at the third paragraph, where it says:

• In Microsoft Exchange Server environments, administrators can customize the security settings by installing a special Outlook custom form in a public folder and configuring security options for individuals and groups.
