Sorry, if I appeared to jump to a conclusion. It is just that I have seen 
different reports of either LO or OOo not running if the other is running.

There was one in the OOo users list about portable LO not starting because OOo 
was active. So there are conflicts. No implication that this is intentional 
just a fact of originally being the same codebase. Registrations on various 
systems is hard. I've had the "joy" of writing installation code for .Net 
assemblies and that is not fun.

Regards,
Dave
