In KDE 4.3 the handling of .desktop files has been changed for security
considerations.

see http://www.purinchu.net/wp/2009/02/21/desktop-file-security/

Because of this change, OOo cannot be lunched from menue or by opening a file. 

I don't know, when or if this change will be integrated in gnome and the free
desktop standards. 

Anyway - the fix is easy to implement:
- make all the .desktop file in share/xdg executable
 - or -
- make root the owner of all these files.
