This sounds like a problem I've encountered when downloading OpenOffice
to Windows XP. The built-in support for zip files in Windows immediately
opens the archive in a folder, but you simply can't run the setup file
from there, or you'll get the message you describe. Try downloading the
archive to a folder of its own on the desktop, then use an unzipping
utility like IZArc or WinZip to unzip it in that folder. You should then
be able to run the setup program without any problems. Do a Google on
IZArc--it's free and supports more archive formats than WinZip does.
Good luck!

Hello,
Dear Sir
I have downloaded and tried to install the windows version of open
office 2 from many of your mirrors. It always fails to install, because
of missing dll files in open office1. Am I doing anything wrong in the
download process? Help please!
