This appears to have been relaxed in Outlook 2007, though I can't test it since I don't have Outlook 2007 installed. It requires Vista or XP with an anti-virus package in place.

Im an Exchange administrator and I have never seen such a thing, the way I have got around this problem with third party apps in the past is to do the following:
Create a Public Folder in Exchange named "Outlook Security Settings". Must be at the top level of the Public Folder tree and make sure users have at least Read access. It is important that the name is exactly as I have written it (of course, without the quote marks)
• Download the Outlook Security pack here:http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...54/admpack.exe
• Extract the files and you should then have an outlk9.adm file and an Outlook Default Settings.oft file.
• Open the OFT file and when asked where to import it to, choose the public folder you just created
• Open the form in Outlook (you might already be at that screen from the last step) and go to the “programmatic settings” tab, change all of the settings to auto approve
• Leave everything else in the form as it is, then click the Post button in the top left corner.
• Copy the outlk9.adm file accross to your DC and then create a new Group Policy Object that affects all users (doesnt need to affect computers)
• Edit the new policy and import the outlk9.adm file into the Administrative Templates section under the User Configuration section
• Now, still in the User section of the GPO, drill down into the Admin Templates and then into the Outlook 2000/2003 folder then into the folder named Tools | Options and then into Security
• There may only be one policy in here but just in case you have a few, the one you are looking for is named something like "Virus Settings". Open this policy up and enable it and choose the option from the drop down list that says "Search Outlook Security Settings folder for security settings"
• Go onto a users machine and do a gpupdate /force then test it out!
I've got this working in Exchange 5.5 and 2003 environments but I havent ever tested it in Exchange 2007. Hope that helps someone as I know I spent ages trying to get rid of this damn prompt!
