MS Office Pop up on Sync

I disabled the auto sync because every time it ran Outlook popped up a message that says

"A program is trying to access email addresses you have stored in Outlook. Do you want to allow this? If this is unexpected, it maybe a virus, and you should answer no."

It then gives me a check box selection to allow access for 1, 2, 5, or 10 minutes, and until I make a selection the sync wouldn't take place.

Two questions:

1) Why is the Toodledo sync client accessing my email address in my Outlook contacts?

2) Is there a setting somewhere that allows the Toodledo sync client access to Outlook without requiring me to give it explicit permission on every sync?

Answered in this thread - please ignore the bit about the Micropledge project though.

I have the same problem -- each time toodledo attempts to sync I receive the outlook message -- the link provided does not work.

Add an 'l' to the end of the link making it "html" at the end.
I tried re-posting the full link, but each time it posts it seems to distort it by adding a space.

Here are the links to the plug ins that fix this problem on Office 2007

For Outlook 2007 this issue can usually be fixed by installing an up to date anti virus product. I would consider AVG or Avast as decent free products.

I think I might have done something wrong here. I was enduring the pop-up box you are referring to above and getting along with my business, but I think I might have accidentially clicked something on the pop-up box and now it won't sync at all. When i click manual sync it just won't connect. any thoughts?

Hi Joel,
Try disabling the add-in, or uninstalling it.
