As far as I've ever been able to tell, you're stuck with it.
Obviously, in a sense, since otherwise any would-be virus /
zombie program would simply turn the option off before using
Outlook to send out its emails!

Can't remember the details, but last time I looked (a year ago) you
could avoid this if you changed a setting for the user at the exchange
server. I found this out by doing a bit of googling and
can't remember what I did, but managed to solve the same problem.
