If your under Leopard I noticed that Firefox and Camino - a Cocoa 
based Browser that uses the same Gecko engine as Firefox - perform 
poorly when it comes to downloading files. Until now I haven't 
figured out why. When I get 200 kbit/sec in Firefox/Camino I get 
600 in Safari 3. 

In addition a user informed me via private Mail that he had trouble 
downloading OOo from nearly all the US Servers or that they 
mirrored very outdated versions. Back in the old days we had those 
problems with the Mac version but we thought them to be solved. 

If you don't mind a little more download time you can try an 
european mirror. Usually our german mirrors are up to date and fast 
:-)

You may try <ftp://ftp-1.gwdg.de/pub/openoffice/stable/2.3.0/> 
where you find downloads for PPC and Intel.
