As I said, I am Linux user, I use the OO's linux versions, and I have been using them since the very begining of OO. It is clear why: there was no other office software for Linux. All versions are connecting to the internet, and they don't have any "Online Update" option that I can see. More precise description of how it is behaving : if my network comes up (means, its enabled and running), it tryes to connect, and starts up slowly. If the network is down (disabled, or cable was not pluged in during boot) then it does not even try to connect to internet, and starts up fast. And finaly, if i disable net, as described previosly, OO also starts fast. So if i set my firewall to prevent OO from accessing the internet, wil not stop OO to keep trying, which gives no result. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org
