Hi,
Your might want to close some of your fonts if you have a lot of them open.
If you are using a third-party spell-checker the conflict may be there. You
would want to turn if off for these guys. They're good, but not all that
friendly.
You may also want to add some more memory to Entourage than what it ships
with. I found this helpful. There is also a known issue with the Windows
Media and QuickTime plugins now with Internet Explorer. I crashed a lot and
took them out and the crashes ceased. I put QuickTime back in and had good
luck with it so far. I thought Entourage was causing the crashes, until
Microsoft enlightened me about the plugin issues.
I was also using a Microsoft USB Intellimouse which I loved but turned out
if was causing a lot of the crashing on its own. I don't know if this
applies to you.
I'd look in this newsletter's previous posts. There has been a lot of
discussion about crashes and I can only relate to you my own personal
experience.
Good luck!
Peter Deep
