Kay - I'm not certain, but I suspect 
http://openoffice. xtremedownload. com may be the site in question. Its 
download is a small .exe file and it mentions that it adds mysearchdial..
There have been a number of reports on the en-Forum of mysearchdial infection, 
but unfortunately no definite URL.

If you are reading this posting ONLY download from www.openoffice.org/download 
(redirects to SourceForge and your download should start in 5 secs without 
further intervention by you).

2014-03-04 Thread Shari Lynn Smith 
Hi, it sounds like you may have download from somewhere that adds "stuff"
to the program.

Make sure when downloading you are going to the official site to help you
avoid this problem. Sorry it happened to you :-(

The site you want to use is OpenOffice.org

If you use a virus protection program you can try using that to help you
with the removal or search Goole for help on its removal. Look for
information not something you have to download.

Hope you get it removed. Once you have the official version I'm sure you'll
enjoy OpenOffice.

Which browser do you use to download OpenOffice? Some browsers have a 
default location where they put downloaded files.


For example my Internet Explorer and my Seamonkey have a list of 
downloads, which I can view by Ctrl+J. From there I can go to the 
download location.


Do you run a program in background, which "cleans" something?

Kind regards

Hi --

Our official download site is:

http://www.openoffice.org/download/

which should NOT force you to download or use anything called
"mysearchdial".

It would be helpful to us if you would provide the name of the site where
you attempted to download  OpenOffice. This would help us stop this type of
activity.

If you do a search on "mysearchdial", you will find a variety of links
telling you how to remove this.

Dear Vendor
We are currently running your software as listed in table 1 in a Windows server 
2003 SP 2 Domain environment and Windows XP SP 3.client operating system. These 
are delivered across both fat & thin clients.
We are planning to upgrade to a Windows server 2012 Domain and Windows 7 and 
8.1 Clients, again utilising both fat & thin clients.
To complete this upgrade process we need to understand the compatibility of the 
software supplied by yourselves. To assist with this, we have detailed the 
tables below referencing pertinent points in relation to your software in our 
environment:
Table 1: lists the current software and version
Table 2: A to E indicates the 5 different system configurations scenarios we 
will encounter until the upgrade process is complete
Table 3: This lists the expected scenarios that we will have in place once the 
upgrade is complete, in relation to operating systems.
Table 4: Is a table to define any Internet Explorer compatibility requirements 
for the software listed in table 1
Throughout the upgrade process we will be faced with any of the configurations 
scenarios in Table 2 - A to E. We would appreciate it if you could confirm if 
the software in table 1, is supported with the operating systems in table 3, as 
well as any Internet Explorer compatibility concerns in table 4
If any of the options are not supported can you please give recommendations in

Thanks for the explanation, a general ODF document bug is of course a
release_blocker. I thought the bug was about LO generated documents, which
may interpret ODF differently than we do.

And to make it more clear what the showstopper flag means. With the flag
we identify serious issues where we think they should be fixed in the
final release. But it means also that our Beta can still have not yet
fixed showstopper issues.

The idea of the Beta is to collect a broader feedback because the dev
snapshot were not used by many early adopters. But with an official Beta
release we expect more feedback.

We continue to fix showstoppers until the final release and will not
release with any open showstopper.

just for my understanding, how can we have a release blocker, because
something does not work with LO, that does not sound logical.

I agree its a bug that should be fixed, but not as a release_blocker for 4.1



It is a general defect which occurs which is also triggered by documents 
created in the LO community. The documents are valid ODF documents which 
cause crashes in OpenOffice caused by my changes for the enhancement 
'annotations on text ranges'. This enhancement has been introduced for 
AOO 4.1 by myself. Thus, this regression which is also a crash should be 
fixed for AOO 4.1 in my opinion.


I will attach a sample document created in AOO 4.0.1 which will cause a 
crash in recent builds for AOO 4.1

This is a moderated post from someone using the Polish user interface.
The original post included a screenshot (removed by the list server) of
a the Calc menu "Format -> Text Case -> UPPERCASE". A very rough
