Don't know if this will bump the bug up due to me replying to it but I think I
'solved' it.
Well... the problem went away.

It was due to a large number of fonts on my windows install that were being read
every time I right clicked on normal text but the font option isn't available
when you right click on a spelling mistake that is underlined in red.

I'm not sure why this wasn't an issue in Linux although I did run fc-cache
whenever I install a lot of fonts on it, so I think that this bug is more of an
issue with windows bad handling of fonts, or from requests to generate previews
for all of them at once.

I think it's caused by OO trying to cache or at least read and preview a lot of
fonts when I right click, I can understand some regularly used ones but why
cache all of them?

I haven't installed 2.4 yet but as this problem goes away when I remove the
fonts I think it's a major problem in the first place, more of a feature request
that OO should identify when it's about to try and access too many fonts and not
do so.
Or it should only generate previews of fonts as the font is requested and not to
cache them all every time the list of fonts is called.

The easier solution is when I remove the fonts as I said, but when I am doing
presentation work, the variety of fonts is a nice feature to have to hand.

Feel like I have wasted peoples time over this one as the solution was
relatively simple after spending a short while messing around with everything
that is related to OO, I'm just surprised this is the only program that was
stalled when there was a large number of fonts on my system.

Thanks anyway

Robert
