For more information about planning Entourage security, see the Office 2008 Planning section.

Configuring AutoUpdate for Office 2008
By default, Microsoft AutoUpdate for Mac is set to look for updates to Office 2008 applications
automatically once per week on a user's computer. However, you can modify the default setting to
specify a different schedule.
AutoUpdate preferences are stored in the com.microsoft.autoupdate2.plist file in
/Users/username/Library/Preferences. When you are deploying AutoUpdate preferences from a
central location, deploy this file.
Note If a user is logged in with an administrator account, the user can run AutoUpdate by
starting any Office 2008 application and then clicking
Check for Updates on the Help menu.
Set AutoUpdate preferences
1. In /Users/username/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/MAU2.0/, double-click
Microsoft AutoUpdate.app.
2. Either click
Manually, or click Automatically.
• If you are planning to deploy updates centrally, click
Manually to prevent
automatic updates on users' computers.
• If you click
Automatically, on the Check for Updates pop-up menu, click the
schedule that you want to use for installing updates on user computers.
