What happens if you start your Mac with the Shift key down (Safe Start)?  If
you do a Safe Start, then the MS background processes should not load.

Then you could move your Main Identity to the correct location and restart.

I'm not sure what should happen next.  But it feels to me like you could do
the following:

1. Restart with Shift Key Down (Safe Start).

2. Find the Main Identity folder that holds your previous Main Identity.

3. Make sure that inside the Main Identity folder there are the proper
files:
  Signatures
  Mailing Lists
  Rules
  Database 

4. Move the Main Identity to the proper location.

/Users/Your_User_Name/Documents/Microsoft User Data/Office 2004
Identities/Main Identity

5.  Make sure there is not another "Microsoft User Data" folder in that
location.


6.  Restart the Mac normally.

7.  Open the Main Identity folder.  Start Entourage by double-clicking the
Database file.  Entourage should open, and should show you all the
messages/folders in the Main Identity.


How does that work?
