Startup order Outlook Add Ins?
"Pieter" <pietercoucke[ at ]hotmail.com> 7/11/2006 1:24:21 PM
Hi,

I'm having some trouble with an outlook add in:
I made an outlook add in, but sometimes for (yet) unknow reasons it suddenly
stops loading. The problem is: We have another add-in (for the anti virus
nod32) that doesn't load if weh ave this problem, and causes a lot of errors
etc.

I think a (quick) solution could be to ensure that my add in is loaded after
the nod32 add in. Is there a way to define in which order the add ins has to
be started? Or to pause the startup of an add in somehow to be sure all the
others arel oaded first?

Thanks a lot in advance,

Pieter

The first thing you should do is remove the antivirus add-in. It's
unnecessary.

Ok thanks for your opinion :-)
And what about malicious emails that enter?

No other solution that keeps my network administrator in peace? :-)

Pieter,

I believe that antivirus add-in has a fix to repair the damage to all of the
users of MS Office products. Have your network admininstrator update the
anti-virus program. Having said that, the add-in is still a useless overhead
in your system.

You still run an on-access scanner, and, even better than that, you have a
brain. In 99% of all malware cases a five second examination of the message
will tell you to simply delete it without opening any attachments. Malware
depends on user stupidity. - clicking to open an unrecognized and
unrequested attachment without first saving it to disk or verifying the
sender.

Then your network administrator doesn't understand the nature of the
majority of malware threats.
