I think the problem is in the splash screen process. So, I realize 2 ways to 
disable it and then I have no problem on opening file over smb or ftp protocol 
by double click on nautilus
1. Enabled the feature "Quick Starter" on LibreOffice,
2. Or you can open one instance of LibreOffice before clicking on file.
3. in /usr/lib/libreoffice/program/sofficerc, change: Logo=1 to Logo=0.

Title:
  libreoffice calc hangs when opening an xls file shared over cifs

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  Incomplete
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “libreoffice” package in Fedora:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  used to work prior to upgrade (12.04).
  steps to reproduce:

  1. run nautilus
  2. control-L to open location. type: smb://<some windows file server>
  3. navigate to some .xls file
  4. double click on file

  
  kill <pid> wont get rid of the process... have to reboot

  subsequent attempts to run calc, even to just open a blank workbook

  if you open a blank workbook prior before getting process stuck, it
  works fine.
