It ran well for a few days but today I noticed something weird: all

idea why this could be happening and how I could stop it? There is no
change in the other three synced calendars (iCal, MobileMe, Google
calendar) - they show only one instance each. Only Entourage shows the
event repeated three times!

Make sure that Office is perfectly up to date on your computer. I read
that there was improvements in this regard in 12.1.2.
These duplications usually occur on all day events. A quick way to
identify the duplicates and clean up the mess: always assign a category
to your events.
Categories will not sync so all events without one are duplicates. You
can create a saved custom search for all your events (e.g.: Folder is
Calendar (on my computer)) and sort by category. It really makes it a
lot easier to clean the whole mess up.

1. I am running the latest version - 12.1.2.
2. The multiple instances are of time-bound events and not all-day
events.
3. Will try out the categories fix but that will only help in the
clean-up - isn't there a way to avoid this in the first place? :(

Warm regards,
