I'd say "In no circumstance should AOO establish itself as a default
for any file type which is already associated with another program."
That is, we shouldn't "steal" file associations. If, OTOH, someone is
installing AOO on a box without MS Office, then it makes perfect sense
to make AOO the default program for .doc, .ppt, etc.
Likewise, most people probably don't have a "native" ODF program on
their systems, and installing AOO as the default for ODF would
probably make sense in most cases.

Claim is that it hijacked files from word pad. No idea what that
extension might be, i did not ask him.
the default extension for wordpad is rtf and AOO does appear to define
itself as the default for that extension.
