Isn't that one of the applets downloadable from the MacTopia site in
"Entourage Add-Ins", which can be used even when Entourage isn't open?(You
can put it, or an alias, in the Apple Menu items, or to run from a OneClick
button or whatever.) If you want, you can save another copy of it as a
compiled script and put it in Entourage script menu which makes it much
faster to run from within Entourage, with or without a keyboard command,
since you don't have to wait the 3 seconds for the applet to open.
