Not a fix but a work around. Quit Entourage and open IE. Set your IE preferences, visit your web sites to collect their cookies and than quit IE. The com.apple.internetconfig.plist file will now have your preferences and cookies. You will just have remember that any time you change your IE preferences or add web cookies, you need to quit Entourage before quitting IE. Otherwise Entourage will return the file to the condition it was in when Entourage was opened. >From an earlier list discussion, I believe Dan said that this was a problem with the com.apple.internetconfig.plist file that Apple needed to fix and that MS couldn't fix it on their own.
