Luc: Do the following:
1. Disconnect the Siemans from the Internet. Do not re-connect until all installation steps are complete. 2. Disable the Windows Firewall. 3. Disable your Anti-virus software. 4. Insert your OpenOffice.org CD into an available optical drive (I will not assume that you are using a CD or DVD drive.) 5. Run the OpenOffice.org installation program. 6. Test all of the functions of the OpenOffice.org program. They should work without any new problems. 7. Re-enable your Anti-virus program. 8. Re-enable your firewall program. 9. Run OpenOffice.org again. You may need to enable access to the Internet for OpenOffice.org so you can install new dictionaries. 10. Re-connect your Siemans to the Internet. Enjoy OpenOffice.org! I have replied both to you and the OpenOffice.org mailing list. Please reply to the list only.
