This issue is unrelated to "Spreadsheets" so I propose changing "Component" to 
something more 
generic, as it affects the whole OpenOffice suite of applications. The 
self-updated procedure simply 
doesn't work and hasn't been for quite some time.

Having to visit the website and download it from there is a pretty lousy user 
experience and if the 
update procedure is unsupported for whatever reason, the whole update feature 
and related user 
interfaces should be removed completely. The way it is now with a seemingly 
functioning update 
feature that doesn't work at all is just frustrating.

The simplest form of "fix" to the problem is to direct the user to the download 
page of OpenOffice.org 
where he can manually download and update the application, but a fully 
functional automatic self-
updater (with a BitTorrent backend) would have been so much better.
