Pardon me while I remove my feet from my mouth and wait for the red in my face
to subside!

MY error was thinking custom install only applied to the elements of the program
I wanted installed and not - as I found out with 2.3 - also to a custom 
location.

Thank you and now continue as you were before I rudely interrupted -

GAD

I'm sure I'm not the only person who abhors software that installs itself
wherever the hell it wants to on MY machine(s).

I have deliberately reserved partition C: for my operating system ONLY and
install writing/editing type programs in partition E:  This makes recovery from
disastrous crashes, and my backups, far easier.

With OO2 I had no problem but OO3 wants to take over my OS partition.  For this
reason I have removed it and will stick with 2.3 until this destructive BUG
(because that's what I consider it) is corrected and removed from any future
releases of OO.
