This could be many different things related or unrelated to Entourage.
Open Activity Monitor found in /Applications/Utilities and check your
hard drive space and amount of memory.
I suspect you are running low on memory. While looking at the pie chart
representing your memory usage you'll see four colors. If the red +
yellow amount is significantly greater than the blue + green amount then
you don't have enough memory for the amount of applications you have
running at the time.
Hope this helps!
