Hi :) Have you tried downloading the Windows one in Mint and then run a antivirus scan on it? maybe Clamav?
I'm sure i downloaded LO recently on an Xp and on a Win 7 macine with no problems but i might have another look later. Could someone forwards the problem to the websites mailing list to see if something new has cropped up?
