Try closing all windows, then opening the Calendar, and quitting Entourage.
Now launch it again; the Calendar should be the only window. Entourage will
usually reappear with windows in the same configuration as when you last
quit. So, if you want the Calendar front when you start up, you will need to
make sure it is front whenever you quit Entourage.
Or, if you don't mind having whatever is in the Browser window replaced by
the calendar when you start up, you could do this:
1. Set up a schedule that fires "At startup".
2. Set its action to "Run AppleScript".
3. Copy and paste the following script into Script Editor, and save it as
"Calendar to front" in Entourage Script Menu Items folder.
4. Select that saved script in your schedule, and save the schedule.
Now, whenever Entourage launches, it will find the first browser window that
is open, or if not will open one, and will set its contents to the calendar.
This should also bring the calendar to the front if Entourage is active at
the time.
The script should work in any version of Entourage v X, but I see you have
Entourage 2001. I suspect the script won't work for that version; try it. If
it won't even compile the line about "displayed area", this won't work for
you. (I don't have 2001 around to experiment with any longer.)
tell application "Microsoft Entourage"

try
set w to every browser window
if w is not {} then
set w to item 1 of w
else
set w to make new browser window
end if
set displayed area of w to calendar area

end try
end tell

I'm not sure what you mean by "commandeered" you family category. Can you
explain the problem in more detail? And, do you have the Junk Mail Filer
active?
