Interesting. I have Word and Excel from Office 2008 always running
but have no problems with hourly Time Machine backups (Leopard). I do
not use Entourage at all.

Hi Peter,
From Microsoft support you must quit all Microsoft Applications
before backing up.
"backing up hourly you must quit quit All Microsoft applications
(Entourage, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, My Day, Office Reminders,
Messenger) and the Microsoft Database daemon before backing up. See
article Quit all Microsoft applications before backing up"

Also, force shutting down your your MacBook is NOT recommended.

I have noticed what I believe is a bug in Entourage (Office 2008).
I have a Macbook 13” 1 month old so running Snow Leopard. I also
have a Time Capsule. When the hourly backup is running AND at the
same time I attempt to Attach a file to an email I am preparing, it
all hangs up solid. Option/Command/Escape allows me to crash
Entourage which reports as “Not Responding” but I have only been
able to get back to ‘normal’ by a forced crash by holding down the
Power button and starting again.
This seems a bit savage but I am not aware of a more elegant
solution.
Is this a bug that anyone else has noted and any tips for elegantly
restoring the balance without savagely crashing the machine and in
turn interrupting the backup as well?
Kind Regards
Peter…
