Hi Stephen, > http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/ocr-helper
Are we talking about this one? Yes? With a working browser (no Microsoft Internet Explorer) this link leads me to a downloaded file named "ocr-1.4.0.oxt" which is a zip file indeed but with ".oxt" as file name suffix. I can simply double-click that file in order to install this extention. Since you seem to use a broken internet browser which constantly renames downloads for no good reason other than beeing zip archives, you can install the downloaded and renamed "ocr-1.4.0.zip" like this: Option a): Rename the ocr-1.4.0.zip to ocr-1.4.0.oxt and double-click. Since MS Windows since 1995 hides well known name suffices for no good reason, you may prefer Option b): Office-menu:Tools>Extension Manager... button [Add...] and point to the downloaded file however it is named. You may even install it via File>Open... Remove the files you unzipped manually. They don't do anything at all. The aforementioned "no good reasons" basically relate to the matter of fact that MS fights an undeclared war on the hard disks of their customers.
