I have installed 1.1.1 and upgrades through 1.1.4 as well as 1.9.79 on 
my Win 98SE without disabling either Mcafee virus scan or my Zone 
Alarm firewall, and had no problems.

I don't think I would install any major software with any documents open 
and unsaved.  That's standard procedure as far as I am concerned.  Of 
course, most MS product installs demand a re-start, which OO.o does 
not.  I probably would leave my email client (Pegasus) and browser (IE 
and Firefox) open unless the install told me not to (and many installs 
will).

Hope that helps.
