It is HTTP, not HTML (Sorry, just a bit of pedantry). Try this link
<http://download.openoffice.org/1.1.4/index.html> to choose your
language, OS, and mirror. The options are in the blue box to the left of
the page.

Hi Jeff
Thanks for your reply.
I have never had a problem before and have downloaded every version of
OOo that has been so far produced.
Unless I missed something, this time there only seemed to be 2 choices:
1. download the 1.9+ beta version, or
2. download the 1.1.4 Stable version using Bit Torrent - I couldn't
see any HTML option which, like you, is what I have used in the past.
Many thanks, James Elliott

I thought I might update to the stable 1.1.4
Unfortunately, since I had so many copies of OOo on my computer,
from 1.0 onwards, I decided to uninstall all of them before
downloading 1.1.4, not realising that OOo had switched over to Bit
Torrent downloads.
I have downloaded and installed JRE 5.0
I have downloaded and installed Azureus
I have had three goes at downloading OOo 1.1.4 with no success
There does not seem to be an HTML download alternative - so now I
have no office software at all on my computer - can anyone help!
I would be obliged if anyone on this list could give me SIMPLE
instructions on how to downloading OOo 1.1.4 - I have tired
following the ones on the several Web pages (OOo, Bit Torrent,
Azures) without success.
Many thanks, James Elliott

James,
Perhaps I don't understand your problems but I've never had a problem
downloading any version of OOo (Firefox is my friend) and I only have
"copper wire access".
Yes, it means a 5 or 6 hour download, but I initiate that last thing
of an evening and am thus assured of not being woken at say 2 am with
"Sorry, wrong number" :-)
The method I use is this:
Login to My Start Page on the OOo site
Click on the link (right hand side of screen under DOWNLOADS)
http://download.openoffice.org/1.1.4
Select Language from the drop-down menu
Select platform from the drop-down menu
Select Download Site from the drop-down menu
Click on Continue Download
... and go to bed :-)
Cheers,
Jeff
