Outlook holes

So I know that the preview pane is a security risk, and I recommend that people turn that off. There are two other features of Outlook 2003 that I'm wondering about:

1- "Autopreview." In the inbox listing, you can turn on a short text abstract of the message before you open the email.

2- The popup window near the system tray has a similar abstract.

Are either of these security risks? and if so, how?
 
Hi, since XP sp2, the preview pane security risk is subject to discussion...

I consider this "hole" to be fixed.
