Usually a problem like this would clear up with a quit and restart of
Entourage.

The Scripts menu on the right side of the screen is the Apple Script Menu
and has nothing to do with Entourage. The Entourage Script menu is installed
by default and is located just to the right of "Help".

You could try using Repair Permissions first to see if that might clear up
your problem.

To reinstall be sure to use "Remove Office". You will need the CD key when
you reinstall.
