Those instructions are for UNIX based systems, but are valid, in part for Windows98. Try using the search function to find the first two files and then either rename them or delete them. The third file should be deleted. There should be no registry entries for OpenOffice.org that would cause this function to "fire". Once the files are moved out of the way, OpenOffice.org should start without a problem.
