Password protected pst-file prompts directly

I have a few personal folders/data files, and 1 of it is password-protected.

Back in Outlook 2003, I'm only prompted for the password if I actually accessed the folder. Now in 2007/2010, the pop-up comes up as soon as I start up Outlook.

How do I stop this from happening?

Sort Outlook Today Tasks by subject

Using AND operators in rules

Is there a way to create a rule that looks for certain words in the message body and only if it finds all these words in the message it will apply a certain action?

Right now, when using the "with specific words" condition it behaves like an OR operatator.
