of your computer's memory with malicious code.
Improvements for Entourage 2004:
Calendar events no longer display the warning "Event and computer
time zones do not match" when opened
This update fixes an issue for users of Entourage 2004 11.2.3 and Mac
OS X 10.4.5 or later that caused all open calendar event windows to
display the warning: "Event and computer time zones do not match. In
Calendar Views, the event time is adjusted to display correctly."
Exchange and Entourage performance improved. This update improves
Exchange performance in organizations with Macintosh client computers
running Entourage. Office identities created before installing Office
2004 Service Pack 2 and subsequently upgraded to Office 2004 version
11.2.x had synchronization problems if the Exchange mailbox was moved
after the identity was upgraded.
