Sorry if i missed it: where does this go?
That's an iptables rule (a firewall rule). It goes in whatever file
you use to save your iptables rules, in my case /etc/iptables-save
What does that rule mean? simple. If network traffic is coming
from localhost, going to localhost (like a local app connecting to a local
server) and the protocol used is TCP, then it must be allowed.
Apparently OO tries to connect to a local server of some sort, and
if the connection attempt is blocked, then it does not continue
loading until a timeout is reached...

How long does it take to load with that rule in place?
