With respect, a download from the official OpenOffice site at 
[url]www.openoffice.org/downloads[url] as automatically redirected does not, 
repeat NOT, have any provision for automatic or silent upgrade.

If you are of opinion that your OO has silently upgraded, I strongly advise 
removing that version and replacing it woth a download only from the above site.

To fix spellcheck:
Rename your OO user profile.

If you are using Windows close OpenOffice and the Quickstarter. Open File
Explorer. Copy and paste %appdata%\OpenOffice\4 in the File Explorer (sometimes 
called Windows Explorer)
Address Bar and press Enter. Rename the "user" folder - "user.old" is a good 
choice. Start OpenOffice.

That cures most spellcheck problems
