If I remember correctly, here was some advice on installing either
LO or OOo on Windows:
1.) Physically disconnect from the Internet(shut down access to modem).
2.) Log in an Administrator account.
3.) Shut down anti-virus program.
4.) Install LO or OOo.
5.) Start your anti-virus program.
6.) Log in as user
7.) Connect to the Internet again.
I don't know if this would solve some of the problems, but the
remarks of one person having problems that an anti-virus program was
running.
