Program trying to access e-mail address in Outlook when syncing? (virus?!)

First off, the Outlook message pop-up verbatim when I sync with my desktop:

"A program is trying to access e-mail addresses you have stored in Outlook. Do you want to allow this?
If this is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should choose 'No'."

There's also a check box, which if enabled, lets you choose the length of time you allow the access to Outlook. (Along with the buttons Yes, No, and Help.)



I really cannot for the life of me think why this has happened all of a sudden. I am using AS 4.1, but have used it for the past few months without a problem until this message popped up about two weeks ago.

The only thing I can think of is a program I installed on my X30 that contains a bad virus. Weirdly enough, if I select No, one calendar item shows up as being unresolved under AS. Could a calendar entry I have on my Axim be trying to access Outlook? Additionally, if I try to resolve the calendar item, the Outlook pop-up comes up again, and after selecting No, it says that a recurring appointment cannot be read due to error 80180F02.

A search for that specific error on Google leads to this link http://hardware.mcse.ms/archive35-2005-10-248480.html I dunno what, if any, solution it gives though.
