It seems they change their site. It's now look different from that was befobe to my mind and now download links lead to http://download.services.openoffice.org (does it still official download link ?) while curently on official site http://openoffice.mirrorbrain.org download link is represented for me. Maybe they saw this discussion? It look suspiciously :\ If they curenly supply the Official builds and wiil not change download links to any different from official mirror when it looks like some advertising resource. But the page: http://www.downloadadmin.com/consumers/general-uninstallation-instructions confuse me. What Advertiser’s Software is question? So it is realy safest to use officeial site to dowbload, as Rob said, at least while the owners of that resouce contact with AOO developers. There is no any contact information on their page but only the form for question is there.
